lyrics

BELLO

There we were in a fictitious field,
Under an invisible bridge.
We would talk for hours, just
Facing the imaginary wind.
& Giggling at the verdict
Under a grapefruit moon
Me holding out my empty dish;
You dangling your little spoon.

Bello, Bello, Bello - How could you do this to me?
Bello, I already miss you. Now, I don't want you to leave.

We took our thoughts to a watering hole,
Through the park & down the street.
You crouched with your plastic toy claw,
Me choking on poetry.
We ran into the man who says nothing.
He was clutching the kitchen sink.
You wanted to pretend to punch him in the face.
I suggested that we buy him a drink.

Bello, Bello, Bello - How could you do this to me?
Bello, I already miss you. Now, I don't want you to leave.
Bello, Bello, Bello - How could you do this to me?
Bello, I already miss you. Now, I don't want you to leave

We met up with the king in his castle,
With his two fists full of salt.
He challenged us to a staring contest.
I immediately laughed & lost.
But you stood there, with your glare & stared
Him down 'til he lost his cool.
Now the image of your eyes are burned in my mind
& I still feel like a fool.

Bello, Bello, Bello - How could you do this to me?
Bello, I already miss you. Now, I don't want you to leave
Bello, Bello, Bello - How could you do this to me?
Bello, I already miss you. Now, I don't want you to leave
Bello, Bello, Bello - How could you do this to me?
Bello, I already miss you. Now, I don't want you to leave
