Lyrics

Sliver Smile, Moon Pie

Sliver smile, moon pie grinnin? at the night
the kind of smile lets the whole world have a bite
that?s the kind of smile
we both have tonight

Like a sleepy August sticky chocolate smile
of a child wearing ?keep me clean? white
the ?touch me if you can,? ?you can touch me if you like,?
the breathless, scary touches of that very first time
sliver smile moon pie

Heaven?s breath, the dampness of the dew that?s left
the watercolor wetness when your kisses first met
that?s the spin the bottle, landing on the one that makes you tremble
the fumble of the young before experience grows nimble
the beating of the heart each time it bleeds when you?re apart
the feeling that you must have been together from the start

Can I have this dance? knees shaking in new pants
the ?got to get the courage, might not get another chance?
then, on the floor, shaking even more
the innocence now never since
not knowing what?s in store
the never never never ever felt like this before

Sliver smile, moon pie grinnin? at the night
the kind of smile lets the whole world have a bite
that?s the kind of smile
we both have tonight
