I know that I can't tell you This light is slowly fading Like mail that was never dated From towns that were burned and raided And lost without a soul With you forever more
I'm sorry but I can't tell you I feel like a pattern A shape that will never matter A color that will never flatter It's all gonna come around It's all gonna make your eyes burn
I really wanna tell you That love is like a furnace That burns in and out of purpose So hot that it makes me nervous So large that it won't cool out So big that it can't burn out I wait sixteen, a Saturday love My heart beats fast, in far away love Your eyes so pure, they never grow up You stay with me, we never grow up My love
I know that I can't tell you My mind is running circles My eyes have begun to swirl Like death that is not as sterile I ain't gonna let you down I ain't gonna let you leave me
I'm sorry but I can't tell you That life that it makes me crazy So I just like to daydream Cause dreams yeah they make me happy Will you come along, my love? Will you come along here with me?
I wait sixteen, a Saturday love My heart beats fast, in far away love Your eyes so pure, they never grow up You stay with me, we never grow up My love
