lyrics

draw the curtain, lock the cellar door
you can’t be certain what goes out and what goes in
what’s on your mind?
delicate and fragile like the vinyl in my bedroom
if you’re good i’ll let you play the one you like

why’d we say those things we didn’t really mean?
why’d you laugh if you don’t really think it’s funny?
i hurt your feelings and i hope you know i’m sorry
doesn’t matter cause she’s leaving in the morning

penny for your thoughts and dear, i swear that i’ll be better
if you share with me, share what’s on your mind
satisfy a craving, i’m earnestly awaiting
did i sing it right,
was i out of key?

why’d we say those things we didn’t really mean?
why’d you laugh if you don’t really think it’s funny?
i hurt your feelings and i hope you know i’m sorry
doesn’t matter cause she’s leaving in the morning

i never wanted this,
i never wanted this to happen

left the keys right where i asked her to,
but took a part of me with
never want to waste your time or
steal away your peace of mind

i never wanted this,
i never wanted this to happen

why’d we say those things we didn’t really mean?
why’d you laugh if you don’t really think it’s funny?
i hurt your feelings and i hope you know i’m sorry
hope to god i see you sleeping in the morning
