Do You Want Me Now

(альбом: Jump Rope Gazers - 2020)

Long distance is the wrong distance
And there has never been a gulf that's quite as great
As the one we wished into existence
The one that spans between your eyes and my face
You take your time with hard decisions
All of the pieces slide cleanly into place
But this is not a rocket mission
Just a question that keeps me fast awake

In the dead of night
I'm a condemned site with the light on
Tell me what you decide on

Do you want me now? (Do you want me? Do you want me?)
Or do you wanna leave it out
We can talk about it
I wanna tell you something but I don't know how

Being patient's never been my forté
And your waiting room is hard on my esteem
My demeanor has been diving all day
(I can only read so many sun-bleached magazines)
I don't know if I've ever felt this way
I can't remember if I like myself at all
Just you in this empty space
It's getting darker the deeper that I fall

In the dead of night
I'm a condemned site with the light on
Tell me what you decide on

Do you want me now?
Or do you wanna leave it out
We can talk about it
I wanna tell you something but I don't know how
Do you want me now?
Or is this way out of bounds?
I won't be mad about it
If you want to go without it
I'll see you around

In the dead of night
I'm a condemned site with the light on
So tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me

Do you want me now?
Or do you wanna leave it out
We can talk about it
I wanna tell you something but I don't know how
Do you want me now?
Or is this way out of bounds?
I won't be mad about it
If you want to go without it
If you want to go without it
I'll see you around
