The doorway frames you
|
a picture perfect silhouette,
|
blue sky of regret
|
enough to hang you
|
Your legs seem to tremble
|
At least I imagine that they do
|
Then again, it's probably easy for you
|
|
But please, don't open your mouth, my dear
|
I can read all the signs
|
I can take it from here
|
There's no need to explain,
|
It's perfectly clear
|
|
Yellow wallpaper peels makes
|
a strange halo around your head
|
It's funny how I notice
|
These stupid things instead
|
You say something awkward
|
But I wish that you wouldn't
|
A whole life of You wish you could's
|
but just couldn'ts
|
|
But please, don't open your mouth, my dear
|
I can read all the signs
|
I can take it from here
|
There's no need to explain,
|
It's perfectly clear
|
|
So I try not to think to much
|
it only just makes me mad,
|
Spent half my life loving you
|
Think of all the love that I could've had
|
|
Five years worth of kisses
|
Are packed in your bags
|
This tiny moment fits
|
All the big things we ever had
|
And I can't quite pinpoint
|
When it left or what for
|
Love always steps lightly
|
Away from the door
|
|
Please, don't open your mouth, my dear
|
I can read all the signs,
|
I can take it from here
|
There's no need to explain,
|
No, there's no need to explain,
|
It's perfectly clear
|
