It's honey on my tongue
Hallelujah on my lips
It's the shiver down my spine
When I tuck her hair behind her ear
Shiver my timbers
Rest my soul
Hold my hand
Away we go
It's waltzing down the boulevard
A lullaby screaming on the radio
It's the rest for all my weary
When she lays her head down on my shoulder
Shiver my timbers
Rest my weary soul
Hold my hand
Away we go
It's the stillness of an empty night
The loneliness at dawn
It's the chicken soup comfort
Of hearing her voice repeating in my head
Shiver my timbers
Rest my weary soul
Hold my hand, now darling
And away we go
It's her breath on my cheek
It's the way she closes her eyes
It's her hand in my hand
As you're waiting for something to happen
Shiver my timbers
Rest my weary soul
Hold my hand, now darling
And away we go
