Bright Eyes - Take It Easy (love Nothing) lyrics

First with your hands, then with your mouth A downpour of sweat, damp cotton clouds I was a fool, you were my friend We made it happen You took of your clothes, left on the light You stood there so brave, you used to be shy Each feature improved, each movement refined And eyes like a showroom Now they are spreading out the blankets on the beach That weatherman' s a liar, he said it would be raining But it's clear and blue as far as I can see Left by the lamp, right next to the bed On a cartoon cat pad she scratched with a pen "Everything is as it's always been This never happened" "Don't take it so bad, it's nothing you did It's just once something dies, you can't make it live You're a beautiful boy, you're a sweet little kid But I am a woman" So I laid back down and wrapped myself up in the sheet And I must have looked like a ghost, cause something frightened me And since then I've been so good at vanishing Now I do as I please, and I lie through my teeth Someone might get hurt, but it won't be me I should probably feel cheap, but I just feel free And a little bit empty No it isn't so hard to get close to me There will be no arguments, we will always agree And I will try and be kind when I ask you to leave We will both take it easy But if you stay too long inside my memory I will trap you in a song tied to a melody And I'll keep you there so you can't bother me
