Robbie Fulks - She Must Think I Like Poetry lyrics

rate me

For every emotion, she's got one she's hiding

She moves closer, as though to reveal her mind

And she dances, like it'll rain inside me

Does she feel that strong?

Do I look so blind?

All the dreams she draws in colors of the rainbow

All the soulfulness she's wasted on me

And by the vicious lies her lips can't help but let go

She must think that I like poetry.

On a high rope, and suddenly thrown off balance

She reaches out into empty air

And for a moment, an animal bares its talons

Oh my sweet sad love

What face won't you wear?

She only hears the words I never say

What's right in front of her is only in her way

The sky that falls helplessly through her hands

And the worlds that Heaven won't let start

All the things that die and come apart

All the ground that she gains, all the breath she's

losing
