Sheets Of Egyptian Cotton Lyrics

ships crossing like ghosts
in the night
names are remembered
faces in sight
take what we can
and need to survive

was exchanging kisses
and you
leave me scarred
and confused

I'll wait and see
what are fools
don't have what I need
go I love you so

nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton
nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton
nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton
nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton

motionless raptures
reveal the give and take
become what's real
leave only memories that
we steal

eyes passing glances
for games
what time remembers
seconds forget

I'll wait and see
what are fools?
don't have what I need
come now
I love you so

nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton
nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton
nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton
nananananananana
sheets of egyptian cotton

let your feelings reveal
the naked truth
convey what I need
'cause you know I needed to
now my feeling is ready
to uncover you
I wanna feel my warmth
near close to you
go, don't you be so cold

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Basically, if you watch the movie (Uptown Girls), you'll know what the song means =P

I've seen the movie and know they have sex, but I don't actually understand the lyrics completely, and how they relate. They seem really vague to me.
