lyrics

You and your owlish eyes - me and my dislike for being surprised
Oh this was bound to go badly
You and your honeyed way - me and my genius for pulling away
Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to - I can see you’re into you, yeah.

You and the way you feel - me and my custom of keeping it real
How many times did I tell you?
You and your panic moves - me thinking surely I’d gotten it through
I guess we all hear what we want to

And you’re so into you that you don’t hear anything that I say but you think that you love me
And I begin to lose my taste for your need to make me stay
I’m fleeing this custody

Fine if you’re set on me, but honey your settings ain’t no guarantee
I’m going to be where I want to
You’re fixing to make a mess - love isn’t love when it’s under duress
My heart beats boldly in front of you and you don’t have a clue
Cooing in my face as if with words my wild will to sway
But you’re not big enough for the two of us to stay

"Quite apart from that this album is extraordinary on its own merits there are few artists willing to expose their talents to such a sparse instrumental background, and you need to listen to it and discover its beauty for yourself."
- Tim Martin, FATEA Magazine
