Temporary Like Achilles Lyrics

Standing on your window, honey
Yes, I've been here before

Feeling so harmless
I'm looking at your second door

How come you don't send me no regards?

You know I want your lovin'
Honey, why are you so hard?

Kneeling 'neath your ceiling
Yes, I guess I'll be here for a while

I'm tryin' to read your portrait
But I'm helpless, like a rich man's child

How come you send someone out to
Have me barred?

You know I want your lovin'
Honey, why are you so hard?

Like a poor fool in his prime
Yes, I know you can hear me walk
But is your heart made out of stone
Or is it lime
Or is it just solid rock?

Well, I lean into your hallway
Lean against your velvet door

I watch upon your scorpion
Who crawls across your circus floor

Just what do you think you have to guard?

You know I want your lovin'
Honey, but you're so hard

Achilles is in your alleyway
He don't want me here, he does brag

He's pointing to the sky
And he's hungry, like a man in drag

How come you get someone like him to be your guard?

You know I want your lovin'
Honey, but you're so hard
