Luster

Lyrics

Wrapped in the warm and tender In the post returned to sender (?) When they hand you, hand you (?) Hand a glove

Wrapped up in your warm and tender Sliding, gliding (?) Held a banner In the lane when satisfaction comes And goes

(?) Things not to imply slender, gentle, slender Plenty, redemption, Thomas Pynchon, our intentions

Having that said that now, I wonder: Is that rain or is that thunder? How fine a tongue is lick Over and under What I'm trying to say In my own ca-candid way is I wonder! I wonder! I wonder!

Wrap me with your warm and tender I will tie to my you to my fender And so we'll ride Out of town
