Cissus lyrics

[Verse 1: St. Vincent]
Cissus, you keeper of the shadows
Scaling my stone, terrace aswarm in summer

[Verse 2: St. Vincent]
Cissus, you tremble at my window
Winding upward, wind threw your limbs asunder

[Chorus: St. Vincent & David Byrne]
Even blooms that blinked now are open
Vines on my fence are now over and out

[Bridge: St. Vincent & Byrne]
Cissus, Cissus
She will curl to me when I'm folded
Cissus, Cissus
She will drag the book from my hands

[Chorus: St. Vincent & David Byrne]
Even blooms that blinked now are open
Vines on my fence are now over and out

[Outro: St. Vincent & Byrne]
Cissus, Victorian and tethered
Circle my spire, zenith your heights, oh lover
