lyrics

Oh how can I lose myself, oh how I try
To get lost upon your lips
Oh why do I have to psychoanalyse
Every movement of your hips
I'm getting off inside my uptight mind
And I am leaving you behind
Oh I really wish you hadn't gone uncorked the wine
'Cause that's why, oh baby, that's why

When you hear it out loud, it's terrible
When it's written on down, unbearable
You've been a disappointing lover
And you never can forget

Cautionary sounds are floating in on the wind
Ambulances in reverse
Could that be a gunshot ringing out in the dark?
Or something much, much, much worse?
I have died a little death, while you
While you have barely come to life
And it's been a long day baby, such a long, long day
And that's why, oh baby, that's why

When you hear it out loud, it's terrible
When it's written on down, unbearable
You've been a disappointing lover
And you never can forget
And you never can forget
And you never can forget

Of course, we both have other lovers
Whose bodies we both know of old
But when I'm with her, I am numb
No, not like you, with whom I'm molten to the core
But I'm barely in the door, when

When you hear it out loud, it's terrible
When it's written on down, unbearable
You've been a disappointing lover
And you never can forget
And you never can forget
And you never can forget
