"Pure Heat" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

The wind from the north, flattens the yellow corn
You come into the house, with your dress torn

[Refrain:]
I can see you now, as through a screen
A smile on your face, your fingers dripping kerosene

Your hair hangs down, over me
Your hair casts a shadow to cover me

[Refrain:]
I can see you now, as through a screen
A smile on your face, your fingers dripping kerosene

The wind from the north, cools me
The wind from the north, doesn't fool me

[Refrain:]
I can see you now, as through a screen
A smile on your face, your fingers dripping kerosene
