Florence (feat. Kwes)She could be my little freckled-face fidgeter, me but miniatureSleeping on the sofa 'till she tackles and I tickle her, the whisperer I could be your listener, telling me your stories But I'm showing her a signature, the scribbler Saying that she's finished but I tell her eat her spinach And she'll see the sky's the limit, trust 'Cause when we're with it I can feel there ain't no limit Just be free, me and my sister, I can see the skies are limitless I feel her brush her hand across my cheek 'til I speak I yawn and say good morning, keep her sweet, squeeze her deep 'Til she giggles, starts to wriggle in the sheet Then she disappears and sweeps me off my feet I need to eat, uh, I'm reminded of the handshakes Remember that I promised her some pancakes So I stagger to the stove and start to stand braze See I make 'em like my nan makes I see you perching on the corner of the weeping window pane You're growing up fast just like the flora The world is yours, come shine or rain Uh, uh, I could be your freckled-face figure, her but bigger Shelter her from school when all the snitches start to snicker I'll be sticking with her, hold her close and deeper within her She would better me reading the recipe while cooking dinner My little sinner wander walking in the park Put her to bed and end up talking 'til it's dark She spins a web and I get caught up in the laugh I should go but though I know I shouldn't ask See, my sister's like, "nah, there's one more task" I ain't bored of one, laying with her 'til the morning come More begun, I'm a warm her like the morning sun Good morning, Ben, again, we talk until the morning's done And I'm reminded of the handshakes Remember that I promised her some pancakes So I stagger to the stove and start to stand braze See I make 'em like my nan makes I see you perching on the corner of the weeping window pane You're growing up fast just like the flora The world is yours, come shine or rain Wash it beside me, just know I'm only one pancake away You'll know where to find me Any time, any place |
