My eyes on a manhole
Your hands on my face
And mine on your mandolin butt
And we barely get through together
Maybe we grab a drink
I've ruined everything
Except your stolen kisses at night still hanging
But we stay lit anyway
Despite your wounded dreams
Like lampposts, streamers, two shadow puppets
And I hadn't understood all your troubles
But tomorrow I swear we'll leave
And I promise we'll sleep
And we do whatever we want
And if you want we can fight later
But please don't say "I love you"
Cause then we'll start again
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
Cause then we'll start again
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
And we've got rust on our hands
Cause it's been raining for months
Cause it's raining on me, yeah
And you work on your thesis
And I've ruined everything
And all the words we spent
The lips, the regrets, the rage, your bites still hanging
But we stay lit anyway
Despite your wounded dreams
Like lampposts, streamers, two shadow puppets
And I hadn't understood all your troubles
But tomorrow I swear we'll leave
And I promise we'll sleep
And we do whatever we want
And if you want we can fight later
But please don't say "I love you"
Cause then we'll start again
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
Cause then we'll start again
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
But tomorrow I swear we'll leave
And I promise we'll sleep
And we do whatever we want
And if you want we can fight later
But please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
Please don't say "I love you"
