Nervous Kind

Tell the gardener not to remove the leaves
And the pieces of what remained
From the past and the last anniversary
When things changed

Don't know what we forgot to negotiate
Don't know what we've forgotten to swear
In the fall when I called
Just right after you

I'm still there
I'm aware
We're imitating anticipating
In that nervous kind of love
We're all looters
And easy shooters
In and evil manner

No more trust to adjust
Underneath the crust
No disgust over this and that
No more act a bit queer
No more crouch in fear
Tit for tat

Tell the housekeeper not to remove the junk
And the pieces of what remained
From the fall when I called just right after you
That we've changed
That we've changed

Now we're run down
Formerly spellbound
In that nervous kind of love
We're fish in the same dark water
While times get harder
On our long way out in the dark

We got stuck in a riddle
Came into a fix now
With that nervous kind of love
We're all looters
And easy shooters
We're afraid of losing out
