Bright Eyes - Lover I Don't Have To Love şarkı sözleri

i picked you out of a crowd and talked to you
said i liked your shoes
you said thanks can i follow you
so it's up the stairs
and out of view no prying eyes
i poured some wine
i asked your name
you asked the time
now it's two o'clock, the club is closed we're up the block
your hands on me
pressing hard against your jeans
your tongue in my mouth
trying to keep the words from coming out
you didn't care to know
who else may have been you before

i want a lover i don't have to love
i want a girl who's too sad to give a fuck
here's the kid with the chemicals
i thought he said to me him here but im not sure
i've got the money if you've got the time
you said it feels good
i said i'll give it a try

then my mind went dark
we both forgot where your car was parked
let's just take the train
i'll meet up with the band in the morning
bad actors with bad habits

some sad singers they just play tragic
and the phone's ringing
and the van's leaving
let's just keep touching
let's just keep, keep singing

i want a lover i don't have to love
i want a boy who's so drunk he doesn't talk
where's the kid with the chemicals
i've got a hunger and i can't seem to get full
i need some meaning i can memorize
the kind i have always seems to slip my mind

but you, but you,
write such pretty words
but life's no story book
love's an excuse to get hurt
and to hurt

do you like to hurt?
i do, i do
then hurt me
then hurt me

then hurt me
then hurt me

(fade)
then hurt me
then hurt me
then hurt me
then hurt me
then hurt me
then hurt me
