Lyrics
Big Love
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.
I've got problems rolling off of my fingertips
I've got the weight of the world left on both my lips
Stop tempting, tempting me, tempting tempting me
With your collarbones and church hall bangin' dance floor hips
You've got a turnaround smile like a turnstile
Build me up, tear me down, watch me burn for awhile.
You're getting, getting me, getting getting me s-so easily
With irony and lyrical miles
Everybody takes a step towards the city
When they find out what they want,
But they know they'll never get it
I get what I want, but did I get what I needed?
A big love, yeah - that'd be enough.
You say you're "history" - well baby, history sure misses me
I'm terribly concerned with the conception of you kissing me
You're talking, talking big, talking talking big
But we both know it's a terrible idea to be missed
So take me on down to the big towns
We'll dress like our dreams, like we know this sound
Cause you, and me, we're bringing us down,
We're making problems out of being around.
Everybody takes a step towards the city
When they find out what they want
But they know they'll never get it
I get what I want, but did I get what I needed?
Did I get what I needed?
What you needed was for me to believe.
Everybody takes a step towards the city
When they find out what they want, but they know they'll never get it
I get what I want, but did I get what I needed?
