under covers

Did you ever see me as your lover

When you were lying in my bed

Was there another in between us under covers

Someone hiding in your head

I remember when you told me you were lonely

I said I could probably make that go away

You said: I only somebody who can hold me

Was it enough for you to want me here to stay

I can’t get out 'cause I'm in too deep

But I shouldn’t want you if you don’t want me

Your polaroids and old cassettes

Are all I have after you left me

Hanging on by a thread at the end of it

You kept me here to let me go

You loved me fast and killed me slow

When I only wanted to come home

Did you ever see me as your lover

When you were crying on my chest

Or was I the bandage holding you together

Using me to get some rest

I remember when you told me that you missed me

You were studying in Paris in the fall

You said honestly: I wish that you were with me

Days later you said you forgot to call

Damn

I can’t get out 'cause I'm in too deep

But I shouldn’t want you if you don’t want me

Your polaroids and old cassettes

Are all I have after you left me

Hanging on by a thread at the end of it

You kept me here to let me go

You loved me fast and killed me slow

When I only wanted to come home

I can’t get out 'cause I'm in too deep

But I shouldn’t want you if you don’t want me
