Message to My Girl
I don't want to say, "I love you"
That would give away too much
It's hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious
I don't want to say, "I want you"
Even though I want you so much
It's wrapped up in conversation
It's whispered in a hush
Though I'm frightened by the words
Think it's time I made it heard
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
Now, I wake up happy
Warm in a lover's embrace
No one else can touch us
While we're in this place
So I'll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
That would give away too much
It's hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious
I don't want to say, "I want you"
Even though I want you so much
It's wrapped up in conversation
It's whispered in a hush
Though I'm frightened by the words
Think it's time I made it heard
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
Now, I wake up happy
Warm in a lover's embrace
No one else can touch us
While we're in this place
So I'll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
