Fragile Sting

L - O-V - E

Am I asking for the moon?
Is it really so impossible?
That you and I could soon
Come to some kind of arrangement?

I’m not asking for the moon
I've always been a realist
When is really nothing more
Than a simple rearrangement

With one roof above our heads
A warm house to return to
We could start with separate beds
I could sleep alone or learn to
I’m not suggesting that we'd find
some earthly paradise forever
I mean how often does that happen now
the answer’s probably never
but we could come to an arrangement
a practical arrangement
and you could learn to love me
given time

I’m not promising the moon
I’m not promising a rainbow
Just a practical solution
To a solitary life

I’d be a father to your boy
A shoulder you could lean on
How bad could it be
To be my wife?

With one roof above our heads
A warm house to return to
You wouldn’t have to cook for me
You wouldn’t have to learn to
I’m not suggesting that this proposition
here could last forever
I’ve no intention of deceiving you
you're far too clever
But we could come to an arrangement
A practical arrangement
And perhaps you’d learn to love me
given time

It may not be the romance
that you had in mind
But you could learn to love me
Given time

Pink Martini’s fourth studio album – Splendor In The Grass – encapsulates the band’s history and spirit of global collaboration and inclusivity. Comprised of nine original songs and four covers (with songs in English, Neapolitan, Italian, French and Spanish), Splendor In The Grass was recorded in the band’s hometown of Portland, Oregon and produced by bandleader/pianist Thomas Lauderdale and longtime collaborator and muse Alex Marashian—a college cohort of Lauderdale and vocalist China Forbes.
