Tindersticks - Nenette Et Bonne (2004) by Tindersticks (보컬) on maniadb.com

You've been lying in bed for a week now
Wondering how long it'll take
You haven't spoken or looked at her in all that time
For that was the easiest line you could break

She's been going round her business as usual
Always with that melancholic smile
But you were too busy looking into your affairs
To see those tiny tears in her eyes

Chorus:
Tiny tears make up an ocean
Tiny tears make up a sea
Let them pour out, pour out all over
Don’t let them pour all over me

How can you hurt someone so much
you're supposed to care for
Someone you said you'd always be there for
But when that water breaks
you know you're gonna cry, cry
When those tears start rolling you'll be back

Chorus
Tiny tears make up an ocean
Tiny tears make up a sea
Let them pour out, pour out all over
Don't let them pour all over me

You've been thinking about the time,
you've been dreading it
But now it seems that moment has arrived
She's at the edge of the bed, she gets in
But it's hard to turn the opposite way tonight

Chorus

Don't let them pour all over me

I could take all the craziness out of you

That's what I loved you for

Take away all the oranges, greens and blues

That's what I loved you for

Take a look at me

You think it really could be that easy?

I mean, take a look at me

You think it really could be that easy for you?

I know about guys, I know where they live

And you're just the same

The ones that matter fight against themselves

But it's so hard to change

Hey, I could love you

Take all that love away from you

Hey, I could love you

Put you in this box I've made for two

So you could take all this craziness out of me

That's what you love me for

Well, I don't mean to laugh

But if you know all this

You must be halfway there

Well, like that dress tonight, you won't know as it falls from you

Turn around and it's winter, darling

Look in the mirror and it won't be you

So you're an old, old dog

You've been around the block

So many times

And it's the same old turns

Same old feelings straight down the line

Yeah, I can love you

Grab that leash and drag you to a place you'd never know

I know where my bones are buried

May take me a while, but I'd find my way home

Let's not make it into a big thing
Let's not get lost in this
I know it is, I know we could
I guess we surely would
Let's pretend it's not
It doesn't mean a thing
Let's not blow it out of all sense
As though it meant so much
It's always thought about for weeks
Not every time your lips meet mine, I think of her
But when her hands reach out, I think of you

See her there
She hangs from me
See her face
She can't let go
I can't look in here eyes
She's holding on
She needed this to hurt me so
So it shot out of me
As if all of the love just got ripped out of me
She said I'm such a sap, I'm such a jerk
Can't I ever forget the way that we are
Spend all your time with your eyes on the ground
Looking for the stars

So it shot out of me
As if all of the love just got ripped out of me
And just for that moment I saw in her eyes
How it all could be
It shot out of me

Say this is it
This is all there is
You have to remember this
This is all there is

(
)

Spend all your time with your eyes on the ground
Looking for the stars
So it shot out of me
As though all of the love has been ripped out of me

Two hours twenty minutes
To one, five past
Now it's laying somewhere out there in the ground
And I've lost you
I was cheated

It was something belonged only to me
And now it's gone through my own stupidity
And I lost you
I was cheated
Two whole years spent earning your love
Now it's hanging around in the clouds
Well I've lost you
I was cheated

I'm cheated by my own vanity
Whispering rumours, bullying me
Well I spent it
It wasn't worth it

&
58;
And for those who are not so beautiful as her
Not giving excuses, but oh...
When it's originally tossed away
It can easily be reclaimed by her
By her

All those years spent building myself up
Trying to stop my staring
And start taking two steps instead of one
But they're so gone now

Feeling relatively good

I pretend to understand
When those eyes hung on mine
But you know, you get it wrong in the end
I pretend to know what it's about
You choose explanations to soothe myself
But you know, you got it wrong and it's the end

&
58;
Now I only laugh with people
Who have no reason to care
Feeling good about things that don't mean nothing

I get caught by what you mean
Hey I could love you when you're ever here
But you know, you got it wrong and it's the end
You know what I say, see what I do
There's a part of me still hiding from you
I miss you, there I said it again

You know what I say, see what I do
There's a part of me still hiding from you
I miss you, there I said it again
