lyrics

I don't want to come back to you
I don't want to come home to you
'Cause I wilt like a flower in your thin arms
You could crush me with just a look
And with just a word you could break me in two
Like a flower in your thin arms

This house is so cold
You've divided the bed again
Let not a whisker of hair or a fingertip touch
Until sun-up
Tell me buttercup
Are we in love or not?
Are we in love or not?
Are we in love or not?

I don't want to come back to you
I don't want to give in to you
'Cause I wilt like a flower in your thin arms
Everybody thinks I'm a fool
That you're stringing me along
But I know that you just can't find the right words to say

Why are you so cold?
You've scratched me 'til I bled again
Let not a whisper of air nor a fingertip touch
Until sun-up
Tell me buttercup
Are we in love or not?
Are we in love or not?
Am I in love or not?

I don't want to come back to you
I don't want to come home to you
'Cause I wilt like a flower in your thin arms
You could kill me with just a look
And with just one word you could break me in two
Like a flower in your thin arms
