you, what did you catch?
i hardly think that you've got plans,
lying in your bedroom standing up
i'm standing down,
would you call me please?
wear something elegant
a single rose in your bouquet
sticking out as if to say
"okay, i miss your face,
would you call me please?"
bleeding the grace from your open waist now,
hallelujah on a strangers face,
i'd hate for you to grow into
a real-life carnival ride
if you want to know,
i'll ask you
if you want to know,
i'll ask you
if you want to know,
i'll ask you
why oh, why?
are you still up north?
the winter is an old cliche
peeking through the cracks in windowpanes
are you awake?
would you call me please?
the moon is just a rock
and funny how the textbooks say
love and science are just one, the same
i just can't stay
i just can't stay
i hate that things happened this way
bleeding the grace from your open waist now,
hallelujah on a strangers face,
i'd hate for you to grow into
a real-life carnival ride
if you want to know,
i'll ask you
if you want to know,
i'll ask you
if you want to know,
i'll ask you
why oh, why?
