lyrics

You sometimes forget to

Listen to what I am saying to you

And I don't alway know what I'm saying

But I wish you'd at least play along

'Cause I'd just like to be here for a second

A second pressed under my thumb

I'd just like to mention the way the light's hitting

The side of the mountain

With the dead orange leaves in the sun

There's a voice in your bathroom

says maybe I'd love you

If only you were a bit different

Shrunk down to pocket size

With smaller ears and bigger eyes

And a little less dusty inside

You have a serious way of remembering

The things you ought not be thinking about

I'm tired of hearing you telling yourself

That you're all squeezed out

There's many odd shapes and dimensions of love

There's that flirty boy back home

You often think fondly of

And the way that you're calm

And the way that you're shook

And the secret letters

Left in your notebook to find

All those times, and I'll keep them in mind

I'll keep them like relics of the tiny divine

And I'll keep them intwined

With what's lost in the rest

But I'll keep them

None the less

You have a serious way of remembering

The things you ought not be thinking about

I'm tired of hearing you telling yourself

That you're all squeezed out.
