Song Lyrics

I've spent all day trying to decide
About the things you said last night
Did they mean nothing
Or were they filled with hidden clues
And can you really have stayed till three
Orange slices and that Fall LP
I feel so lonely when I get back from seeing you

And when someone brings up your name
I can feel myself begin to change
It's like a panic
And a rushing sound in my head
A huge weight pressing on my chest
And now I spend hours trying to look my best
But I still meet you the day before I wash my hair

Oh won't you put that down and take me, I'm yours
When will we have this chance again
Oh please just put that down and take me, I'm yours
We might never have this chance again

That must've been a knowing look
Oh when you moved to pass your friend his book
And oh that feeling
When your hand returns to mine
I think I might as well stay out here
Oh but, can't you kiss me just once properly
Well of course I mean it! I think about you all the time

Oh won't you put that down and take me, I'm yours
When will we have this chance again
Oh please just put that down and take me, I'm yours
We might never have romance again

Warm hands and the things you say
You get lovelier every day
Warm hands and the things you say
You get lovelier every day
