I'm getting used to the sound of meAll tripped up and fumblingPicking words from that lovely streamOf all the things that you mean to meCause it hurtsOh it hurts to like you so muchHow to thank the earth for youThe eyes the smile the wisdom tooYou're all good things thrown into oneYou put the flowers on my tongue that say Yes I love you this wayAnd there's so much that I should tell youAnd there's so much that you should see So many "Keep out: heart bound" places You belong in meI'm getting used to the sound of you Volleying back this feeling tooTasting all the things I wishedWaiting in that lovely kiss with youWhere there's no hiding the truthAnd how you treat me like a queenLike when I said my eyes were swampy greenSongtexteAnd I saw you smile and I heard you say "If your eyes are swamps, they're the Everglades"And that you love them that way.Sometimes it's hard for me to tell youWhat is harder still to hideAnd so I hold tight stay trite and just can't let my heart decideBut despite my fearI've got no way of stoppin' The sound of you from breaking throughThe static in my mindAnd I just won't hearAnother word of caution I know it's dangerousTo love like usBut I feel safe enough in the sound of youI remember how it used to feelTo try to make indifference realTo weed out love so skillfullyThat you would never get to seeThe flag that you were sticking in my heart those daysI knew gravity would get to meAnd I'd be yours eventuallyBut never dreamed it could be so sweetWatching you just talk to meAt night, while the city lights were burning outsideSometimes it's hard for me tell youBut I'll tell youCause I know you sympathizeWhen I hold tight, stay trite, and just can't let my heart decide(Chorus) Aus Songtexte Mania
