i don't want to live through winter
i can't stand to see everything ending
i'll be in the meadow
i'll be taken by sunbeams, so goodbye
(chorus)
there isn't much a thing i need
a silent soul and the blood i bleed
and with a little girl, and by my spouse
who only wants a proper house
while you are away
my heart comes undone
slowly unravels
in a ball of yarn
devil collects it, with a grin
our love, in a ball of yarn
never returning, when you come back
we'll have to make new love
and carefully
(chorus) x 2
================================
oh yeah, we're having fun tonight
oh yeah, i'll hold her hand tonight
cuz when she opens her mouth
she's got the prettiest smile
no good man in her life for quite a while
but when she laughs, oh my, i see right through her pain
devoutly roman catholic but i can't even complain
stereotypical wholesome girl
consumed by her life of higher education
and social tact. definitely tact, and
here i am and she's about to fall in love with me
she's looking for a shoulder to cry on
and i'm more than willing to comply
(chorus)
tears of joy from my comfort
oh, yeah. the way i treat her right
the way i'm chivalrous
my compliments that make her blush
oh, yeah. the way i make her fawn over me.
