Porcelain



She's my Singaporean Lana Del Rey.
This is the same girl whose voice I fell in love with when she covered Love Me by Collin Raye.

-----


You've been tossed
Around too many times too thoughtlessly
By everyone who's owned you before
Before me

So I, I understand
Why you won't trust yourself into my calloused hands
But they would have tried
To have held you gently

Never held a porcelain doll before
Not sure how to handle
Such beauty, such fragility

And you're not sure what to think about me either
As skeptical as I am unskilled

But the shade of pink that I turn your veneer
Don't deny
Just let me try
To come a little nearer
To love you dearer
Love you, dear
