Lyrics Oh where are you now? Pussy willow that smiled on this leaf when I was alone you promised a stone from your heart my head kissed the ground I was half the way down, treading the sand, Please, please lift a hand I’m only a person whose arm bands beats And his hands hang tall Won’t you miss me? Wouldn’t you miss me at all? The poppy birds wave Swing twigs coffee brands around Brandish a wand with a feathery tongue My head kissed the ground I was half the way down, treading the sand, Please, please, please lift a hand I’m only a person With eskimo chain I tattooed my brain all away Won’t you miss me? Wouldn’t you miss me at all?
