Sugarplum Elegy
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.
Seven months older
Air’s getting cold, our bed’s startin’ to creak
God knows where you are
I’m here waiting for love through a screen
You show me the outfit you chose
For the dinner and tonight’s show
Must be nice to be your clothes
Second to none even at your worst
Sometimes I wish you’d put me first
Nowadays you’re such a blur
We keep dancing
Around the innocent truth that we’re just
Out of time (ooh)
Must I die before you feel alive? (Ooh)
A curse in a graceful disguise
I love you too much to stay in love
How are you darling?
How are you, really?
How was Taiwan? (You never say)
Thanks for the flowers
But you’ve been here hours
Yet your coat’s still very much on
Tiptoein’ around the bitter truth
But we both know
It's just time (ooh)
Must I die before you feel alive? (Ooh)
A curse in a graceful disguise
Great was our love, it was one for the books
We gave it the best that we could
But I won’t recite all my lines
Just to watch you and I lie
I’m so proud I got to love you once
