Underling
Cécile McLorin Salvant
[Verse]
You of my life
I have seen no one more blue in my life
And I've dreamt the taste of dew on your lips
Many nights of my life
[Chorus]
All my dreams are disaster
Underling and her master
[Verse]
True and it's trite
I have fallen into eyes telling lies
And I've slept in dingy rooms
Taking trips
Far away from my life
[Chorus]
All my dreams are disaster
Underling and her master
[Instrumental break]
[Bridge]
I've slept so much that I have huddled into nothing but a mass of flesh
So soft and numb that I can scarcely tell where body ends
And sheets begin
If that's the mattress or my skin
The bin I'm living in
[Outro]
I only sing for those I love
I only sing for one to love
I only sing for one to love...
Me
