Here are the lyrics:
Hey, kid --good morning--
You look like an angel.
I don't remember when we fell asleep.
We should get up, kid--
Cathy is waiting...
Look at us, lying here,
Dreaming, pretending.
I made a promise and I took a vow.
I wrote a story,
And we changed the ending--
Cathy, just look at me now!
Hold on, facts are facts--
Just relax, lay low.
All right, the panic recedes,
Nobody needs to know.
Put on my armor,
I'm off to Ohio.
Back into battle til' I don't know when.
Swearing to her that I
Never was with you,
And praying I'll hold you again
Hold on, clip these wings--
Things get out of hand.
All right, it's over, it's done--
No one will understand.
No one will understand...
We build a treehouse,
I keep it from shaking--
Little more glue every time that it breaks.
Perfectly balanced,
And then I start making
Conscious, deliberate mistakes.
All that I ask for
Is one little corner--
One private room at the back of my heart.
Tell her I found one,
She sends out battalions
To claim it and blow it apart
I grip and she grips,
And faster, we're sliding.
Sliding and spilling, and what can I do?
Come back to bed, kid --
Take me inside you--
I promise I won't lie to you.
--[HERE, my track ends for time purposes, but the rest goes:]---
Hold on, don't cry yet,
I won't let you go.
All right --the panic recedes;
All right --everyone bleeds;
All right --I get what I need,
And nobody needs
To know,
Nobody needs to know.
And since I have to be in love with someone,
Since I need to be in love with somone,
Maybe I could be in love with someone
Like you...
