Success is so forbidding —
But it makes me think I’m winning.
Quiet,
Dim the lights,
Adopt another lifestyle.
“Maybe we’ll live and learn, maybe we’ll crash and burn—maybe you’ll stay, maybe you’ll leave, maybe you’ll return…”
the number of times i listen to this song and look at this album cover every day is unhealthy
“I just want it like before
We were dancing all night
They took you away, stole you out of my life
You just need to remember…”
“I must admit
I can’t explain
Any of these thoughts racing through my brain, it’s true
Baby, I’m howling for you”
“I was meant to tread the water
Now I’ve gotten in too deep
For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away…”
Mon coeur ne bat plus quand je te vois
Tu es beau, tu es grand, tu es fascinant
T’as des chevaux, des poneys, faisons des enfants…”
“there’s no combination of words
i could put on the back of a postcard
no song that i could sing
but i can try for your heart…”
“But you didn’t have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing…”
