Saskia

The state of your name
The tombs all the same
The former Eastern block
This place that time forgot
I can't feel anything
I can't even explain
Sassy, oh saskia
These things they make you what you are

You look so heaven sent
As you stride from your tenement
The stars are out tonight
Everyone's in love with you
Everybody needs you too

You are the answer to
The prayers of all the lost and true
Upon the wings of night
You make dark heaven light
I turn the tv on
One moment and your life is gone
The dereliction blues
One day you know you have to choose

You look so heaven sent
As you stride from your tenement
The stars are out tonight
Everyone's in love with you
Everybody needs you too

Oh no

Above the barren trees
Over this concrete landscape
Desolation angels hovering
Here where no flowers grow
The walls all bullet holes
The first signs of falling snow
These things i cannot ever know

Sassy, my saskia
Heaven knows just who you are
The stars are out tonight
Everyone's in love with you
Everybody needs you too

You look so heaven sent
As you stride from your tenement
The stars are out tonight
Everyone's in love with you
Everybody needs you too
Everyone's in love with you
Everybody needs you too
Everyone's in love with you
Everybody needs you
Everybody needs you
