Lyrics
Tempest
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.
My manner is imperious
My logic is empirical
And I'm bad at being a girlfriend
So I'm hoping for a miracle
I fear your disappointment
When I don't turn out ethereal
Though either way for me
I know it means some new material
Now don't go thinkin' that you're special
Just because you are
'Cause I'm bound to overthink it
And I always go too far
But if you think this kind of tempest
May just be your cup of tea
Then I'd like to offer you
The heart of me
Each attempt to clarify
Serves only to confuse
And it feels just like a fracture
But it looks more like a bruise
And my heart can't bear the weight
Of one more empty "I love you"
And I've strained my eyes to blindness
Trying to find a point of view
Now don't go thinkin' that I'm crazy
Just because I am
'Cause I wouldn't act indifferent
If I didn't give a damn
And if you think this kind of tempest
May just be your cup of tea
Then I'd like to offer you
The heart of me
Now don't go thinkin' that I love you
Just because I do
'Cause I've never met a certainty
I couldn't misconstrue
But if you think this kind of tempest
May just be your cup of tea
Then I'd like to offer you
The heart of me
Yes, I'd like to offer you
The heart of me
