Slow Slow Music

I got myself a mortgage, It didn't save the marriage. We weren't insureed, Insured against breakage. If you believe in orphans There's still a chance for love. (The hand that warms you also harms you) Pick me up in pieces, I'm scattered and broken, Slow, slow music. [Chorus] Pick me up in pieces, I'm scattered and broken, Slow, slow music. By the time I was sixteen, I knew the names of the planets, Stayed away from the doorstep, Was frightened of milk-bottles. If you believe in orphans There's still a chance for love. (The hand that warms you also harms you) I know I'm not an orphan But I believe in love. (The hand that holds you also scolds you) [Chorus] So! don't wake the children, Leave them in bed. In the land o the dreamless, They're better off dead. If you believe in orphans There's still a chance for love. (The hand that warms you also harms you) I know I'm not an orphan But I believe in love. (The hand that holds you also scolds you) [Chorus] --- Slow Slow Music - The Go-Betweens
