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
