[Verse 1]
I put my tears in bottles
In case if I need them later
You never know, you never know
And if I get thirsty
Will they make me sad forever?
Forever?
[Chorus]
Oh, cover your eyes
Cover your eyes
Hide me inside, under your spine
Under your spine
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Oh
[Verse 2]
I will kindly watch you sleep
I find out that your eyes are open
I hide other pieces that you never would have liked
If you knew about them
So I hide my children
[Chorus]
Oh, cover your eyes
Cover your eyes
Hide me inside, under your spine
Under your spine
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Under your spine
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Under your spine
[Bridge]
Mmm, ah
Mmm, ooh
(I watch you sleep with open)
(I watch you sleep with open eyes)
(I watch you sleep with open)
Oh
[Chorus]
Oh, cover your eyes
Cover your eyes
Hide me inside, under your spine
Under your spine
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
Under your spine
Oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
(Under your spine)
[Outro]
Down your spine, down your spine
Down your spine, down your spine
Oh, oh-oh
Under your spine
