Lyrics:

I don't want to say, 'I love you'
That would give away too much
It's hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious
I don't want to say, 'I want you'
Even though I want you so much
It's wrapped up in conversation
It's whispered in a hush
Though I'm frightened by the words
Think it's time I made it heard
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
Now, I wake up happy
Warm in a lover's embrace
No one else can touch us
While we're in this place
So I'll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Visions swept under the mat
It's no New Year's resolution
It's more than that
