lyrics

You say things better than a movie.
Inside of your lashes, I watch you holding me,
And you flicker the lights when you’re blinking.
We’re both awake now, but soon we’ll be

tripping it as we go
on the light fantastick toe;
the man in a tuxedo’s
playing cello, our libidos
quietly insistent
as we’re flying – in an instant
i’ll be slipping helplessly
from REM Cycle #3.

I wake to the a.m. station,
Wear the jacket with the patches so you’ll touch the embroidery.
You’re listening to Pandora,
I think that sweater’s angora. Hey, how about we

try tripping it as we go
on the light fantastick toe;
the man in a tuxedo’s
playing cello, our libidos
quietly insistent
as we’re flying – in an instant
i’ll be slipping helplessly
from REM Cycle #3.

You’re the prettiest thing on 2 feet.
If you’d come home with me, I’d never go to sleep.
Help me get past hellos
And remarks about clothes
And we’ll be all each other could need.
Cause when I fall, I fall deep.

So, how about dinner and a movie?
Chop Suey? That’ll be the subject line.
Your long back to the door frame says see ya tomorrow,
And I think: Tonight…

try tripping it as we go
on the light fantastick toe;
the man in a tuxedo’s
playing cello, our libidos
quietly insistent
as we’re flying – in an instant
i’ll be slipping helplessly
from REM Cycle #3.
