Message To My Girl

(앨범: Natural - 1996)

I don't wanna say "I love you", that would give away too much
To be detatched and precious the only thing you feel is vicious
I don't wanna say "I want you" even though I want you so much
Wrapped up in conversation whispered in a hush
Though I'm frightened by the word
I think it's time I made it heard

[CHORUS:]
No more empty self-possession visions swept under the mat
It's no New Years Resolution it's more than that

So I wake up happy, warm in a lovers embrace
Noone else can touch us while we're in this place
So I sing it to the world
A simple message to my girl

[CHORUS]

Though I'm frightened by the word
I think it's time I made it heard
So I'll sing it to the world
A simple message to my girl

[CHORUS]

No there's nothing quite as real as the touch of your sweet hand
I can't spend the rest of my life buried in the sand

Oh every night I hear you call my name
I wanna sleep in my dark (bedroom?)
I have a mind to express my pain
But I won't get back in your tomb
I wanna hear, I wanna hear, oh why you're gone
And every night seems the same song
Same song...
I will be humming in my sleep
I don't wanna say
I don't wanna say...

I can't spend the rest of my life buried in the sand
