Let me put my head
On your lap
Run crimson tipped fingers
Through my hair

Let me put my head
On your lap
I’ll whisper
To your navel

Let me put my head
On your lap
Bent down, brush your lips
Against my cheek

Let me put my head
On your lap
Look down, smile
Don’t talk, just listen

I’ll tell you
Of battles lost
Unrequited loves
Deaths of princes
