Duncan Sheik - Little Hands lyrics

Some sweet perversion on the telephone line I've been waiting for such a very long time For her to be free The evening was nice but there were too many people And all my thoughts, so depraved and evil Oh Lord, what would she say? She says, "Well, I'm afraid, it's not to be You're a sweet guy but you ain't for me I live my life in a different way You know those things you're thinking are a big mistake" We stayed out late 'til morning came I said, "I'll take you home if it's all the same" Her indifference fills the room Some weak seduction on the morning after How it slays me every time I touch her But she just wants to sleep She says, "How long 'til you understand The last thing that I need is another man Didn't you promise to give it a rest? Right now I need a lover like a hole, like a hole in the chest" Oh well, can't blame a guy for tryin' And I'm smiling even though I'm dying To know the love she says will never be One last conversation at the crowded bar And even though the music is louder by far I hear every word she says She says, "Don't take it bad, don't worry about it You're friend of mine and there's no way around it Sometimes you get there early, sometimes you get there late But even if you had a chance you never, never knew the game" Little hands, open smile, I'm glad we got to talk for a while I feel okay, yeah I'm feeling better, I'll let it go but I'll never say never It's okay, yeah it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
