Is This How Generous You Are? Songtext
von Simon Joyner

I asked for a glass of water,
You followed through with sand.
I asked for a lover,
You lent me my hand.
I asked for your heart,
And you showed me the stars.
Is this how generous you are, my love?


I needed your skin,
Well you gave an .
I asked for your blood,
You showed me the bathroom sink.
I wanted you to make me
Hold you closer than before.
Is this how generous you are, my love?

I asked for your words,
And you gave me the key to a hope chest.
Said I was searching for the truth,
And you offered me condolences.
Even the sirens gave their sailors songs
That they could not ignore.
Is this how generous you are, my love?


I asked you to watch over me,
You joined the bystanders.
I asked you then to catch me,
You got out the binoculours.
I asked for you mercy,
You covered me in feathers in tar.
Is this how generous you are, my love?
