WITH TROUSERS ON
(Music by Leah Hinton, Nick Baldwin and Jordan Tredray, lyrics by Leah Hinton © 2010)

The sun will not show us its face
Although its light creeps to the sky its warmth wont reach its smile's teeth
And its absence will darken what its light is trying to reach
I know in my bones tomorrow is come
That it will crawl over today, though we're keeping it at bay
It lurks behind a blink, a laugh, a gap, a wrong word or remark

T'will be here soon, we cannot last
But hold it off for another slice, another taste, another bite
Say it's ok and stay a while, a little longer to bide the time
Cos left alone unease awaits
It's licked its lips, will have a taste of me

The sneaky dawn has caught me with trousers on
Still sleeping in last night's skin
Can't end if it never begins

The sneaky dawn has caught me with trousers on
Close your eyes and rest your head
Know that you have been tricked again
Oh please close down now mind of mine
I don't want to be left here all alone

Still sleeping in last night's skin
Can't end if it never begins

The sneaky dawn has caught me with trousers on
