Lyrics
Scary
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He means tomorrow but says: "In a bit"
And doesn't show up at all
He sets his watch to a comet's orbit
Remembers to forget to call
No courage for love
Too scared to be happy
No courage for love
Too scared to be happy
I do.... do
I do.... do
"Your place or mine" means "heaven or hell"
Two addresses somewhat apart
His home's dark and spiky, her's clear as a bell
It's over before they can start
No courage for love
Too scared to be happy
No courage for love
Too scared to be happy
I do.... don't
I do.... don't
And tomorrow passed them by
La, la, la, la, la ....
