lyrics

May I sing to you a song of insignificance?
Just this once.
May I kiss your palm, put meaning in the meaningless?
Would you hide your hands?
Did you forget that
We had plans to dance, and yes I wanted to.

Finger painting on my belly just like in my daydreams.
I have so much left to say…

Like the way you taste like smoke.
I wanted to explain what that meant to me.
But honestly it’s not so romantic
As kissing hands or feet.

Now you see it’s gotten out of hand.
Let me explain.
With two bodies moving quickly there can be collision,
And I’m not ready to turn my head.
But I don’t over estimate the callus or the compliment.
If you’ll believe me
Then I’ll believe that
You would never say what you don’t mean.

But you are only equal to the sum of your parts
And I’m bad at addition.
For I am cursed with two hands but only one heart,
And “touch” and “feel” are different.

The cuttlefish don’t seem to care that he’s nothing.
And you’re no one to me.
I’m sure that I’ll do my best but there’s nothing
Your newly fixed eyes won’t see.
