Damien Rice

We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

We might live like never before
When there's nothing to give
Well how can we ask for more
We might make love in some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

So why do you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known
And why do you sing Hallelujah
If it means nothing to you
Why do you sing with me at all?

And so it is
Just like you said
it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time

And so it is yes
The shorter story
No love no glory
No hero in her skies
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes

And so it is yes
Just like you said
It should be
We'll both forget
the breeze
Most of the time

And so it is yes
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eye eye eye eye eye
Ooh did I say
that I loathe you
Did I say
that I want to
Leave it all behind
I can't take
my mind off of you
I can't take
my mind off of you
I can't take
my mind off of you
I can't take
my mind off of you
can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind
My mind my mind
Till I find somebody

Don't hold yourself like that
You'll hurt your knees
I kissed your mouth and back
But that's all I need
Don't build your world around volcanoes melt you down

What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for the sea

Don't throw yourself like that
In front of me
I kissed your mouth your back
Is that all you need?
Don't drag my love around volcanoes melt me down

What I am to you is not real
What I am to you you do not need
What I am to you is not what you mean to me
You give me miles and miles of mountains
And I'll ask for what I give to you
Is just what i'm going through
This is nothing new
No no just another phase of finding what I really need
Is what makes me bleed
And like a new disease she's still too young to treat
Volcanoes melt me down
She's still too young
I kissed your mouth
You do not need me

Nothing unusual, nothing strange
Close to nothing at all
The same old scenario, the same old rain
And there's no explosions here
Then something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
I saw a spaceship fly by your window
Did you see it disappear?

Amie come sit on my world
And read me the story of all
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me
Nothing unusual, nothing's changed
Just a little older that's all
You know when you've found it,
There's something I've learned
'Cause you feel it when they take it away

Something unusual, something strange
Comes from nothing at all
But I'm not a miracle
And you're not a saint
Just another soldier
On the road to nowhere

Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me

And Amie come sit on my wall
And read me the story of O
And tell it like you still believe
That the end of the century
Brings a change for you and me

And so it is
Just like you said
it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time

And so it is yes
The shorter story
No love no glory
No hero in her skies
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take
my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes

And so it is yes
Just like you said
It should be
We'll both forget
the breeze
Most of the time

And so it is yes
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial
I can't take

I can't take
