Why'd you want me to hold you, you hate me tonight
You keep turning your back as we lay side by side
I put my hands around your throat and make a most unpleasant joke
Then you tell me your windpipe's a bit to the left
You push down on my thumb 'til you run out of breath
I release and laugh about how it don't hurt
There's nothing better and nothing worse
We're not knowing the meaning behind what we said
[Chorus]
Emotions I don't know their place
Sometimes they pour out of your face
Your eyes your teeth they penetrate
And pierce me and then I deflate
And quickly blow around the room
It's okay I didn't want the moon
Only to share in a couple of clouds
And if they break apart we're found
But then it's just a lovely day
[Verse 2]
Why'd you want me to hold you until your heart aches
I was wanting to fold you until your legs break
I put my hands around your neck, confirm what you already suspect
I am willing to hold you as long as you'll wait
[Chorus]
Emotions I don't know their place
Sometimes they pour out of your face
Your eyes your teeth they penetrate
And pierce me and then I deflate
And quickly blow around the room
It's okay I didn't want the moon
Only to share in a couple of clouds
And if they break apart we're found
But then it's just a lovely day
You keep turning your back as we lay side by side
I put my hands around your throat and make a most unpleasant joke
Then you tell me your windpipe's a bit to the left
You push down on my thumb 'til you run out of breath
I release and laugh about how it don't hurt
There's nothing better and nothing worse
We're not knowing the meaning behind what we said
[Chorus]
Emotions I don't know their place
Sometimes they pour out of your face
Your eyes your teeth they penetrate
And pierce me and then I deflate
And quickly blow around the room
It's okay I didn't want the moon
Only to share in a couple of clouds
And if they break apart we're found
But then it's just a lovely day
[Verse 2]
Why'd you want me to hold you until your heart aches
I was wanting to fold you until your legs break
I put my hands around your neck, confirm what you already suspect
I am willing to hold you as long as you'll wait
[Chorus]
Emotions I don't know their place
Sometimes they pour out of your face
Your eyes your teeth they penetrate
And pierce me and then I deflate
And quickly blow around the room
It's okay I didn't want the moon
Only to share in a couple of clouds
And if they break apart we're found
But then it's just a lovely day
