I don't want to get over you. I guess I could take a sleeping pill and sleep at will and not have to go through what I go through. I guess I should take Prozac, right, and just smile all night at somebody new, Somebody not too bright but sweet and kind who would try to get you off my mind. I could leave this agony behind which is just what I'd do if I wanted to, but I don't want to get over you cause I don't want to get over love. I could listen to my therapist, pretend you don't exist and not have to dream of what I dream of; I could listen to all my friends and go out again and pretend it's enough, or I could make a career of being blue--I could dress in black and read Camus, smoke clove cigarettes and drink vermouth like I was 17 that would be a scream but I don't want to get over you.
In two more years, my sweetheart, we will see another view Such longing for the past for such completion What was once golden has now turned a shade of grey I've become crueler in your presence
They say: "be brave, there's a right way in a wrong way" This pain won't last for ever, this pain won't last for ever
Two more years, there's only two more years Two more years, there's only two more years Two more years so hold on Two more years, there's only two more years Two more years, there's only two more years Two more years so hold on Two more years, there's only two more years Two more years, there's only two more years Two more years so hold on
You've cried enough this lifetime, my beloved polar bear Tears to fill a sea to drown a beacon To start anew all over, remove those scars from your arms To start anew all over more enlightened
I know, my love, this is not the only story you can tell This pain won't last for ever, this pain won't last for ever
Two more years...
You don't need to find answers for questions never asked of you You don't need to find answers You don't need to find answers for questions never asked of you You don't need to find answers You don't need to find answers for questions never asked of you You don't need to find answers
Dead weights, balloons Drag me to you Dead weights, balloons To sleep in your arms
I've become crueler since I met you I've become rougher, this world is killing me
And we cover our lies with handshakes and smiles And we try to remember our alibis We tell lies to our parents, we hide in their rooms We bury our secrets in the garden Of course we could never make this love last I said of course we could never make this love last The only love we know is love for ourselves We bury our secrets in the garden
Every time i think of you I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue It's no problem of mine but it's a problem I find Living a life that I can't leave behind There's no sense in telling me The wisdom of a fool won't set you free But that's the way that it goes And it's what nobody knows While every day my confusion grows Every time I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for that final moment You'll say the words that I can't say
I feel fine and I feel good I'm feeling like I never should Whenever I get this way, I just don't know what to say Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday I'm not sure what this could mean I don't think you're what you seem I do admit to myself That if I hurt someone else Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be Every time I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for that final moment You'll say the words that I can't say
I'll lit the fire, lit the fire tonight I see your body by the trembling light, I see light, I see Let's have our fancy clothes out of the way I see a hallo but I can't see the face through the haze, through the
You spit/This spark/That lights/this fuse that burns/and leads/inside/into This heart/like red/like white/like dead live love/a place A place that you'll call home, so come
Come into my heart Love it, make it start Come into my heart Love it, rip it apart
I'll lit the fire, lit the fire tonight There's mixed feelings, but this fire feels right, it feels right, it feels
We'll get our skinny bones out of the way I've got this urge and this feeling can't wait, can't wait, it can't Your tongue/it turns/and water/comes it through and fire/it burns/inside/of you
The words/you said/like poems/like led like bullets/that melt In the place that you'll call home So come
Come into my heart Love it, make it start Come into my heart Love it, rip it apart Come into my heart Shine above the stars
Enough for you, enough for two It's me for you, like tea for two
This heart ain't made of gold It has no self control Your love will get me through I'll give myself to you I'll give my soul to you I'll rip my heart in two
