Beautiful Thing, I Am Terrified Songtext
von Hotel Mira

I better safety pin my psyche
Before the padded walls close in
I watched a plane crash almost nightly
I shouldn′t have asked the earth to spin
I - I thought that love was a tight dress

And I gotta make sure that you're horny
The thoughts between bemused and numb
Infatuation lasts ′til morning
And then my name falls off your tongue
And I - I thought that love was a tight dress
It never looked so good on me, me
I never came to my senses, no
I let my senses come to me


Oh, beautiful thing
I'm begging you please
The prime of your youth
Don't waste it on me (don′t waste it on me)
A man of my age
Shouldn′t shake in his boots
A list of mistakes
Now one of them's cute
And I

I thought that love was a tight dress
It never looked so good on me
I never came to my senses, no
I let my senses come to me
I never came to my senses, no no no
I let my senses come to me
Thats right

I gotta make sure that you like me
The quotes and lies that flee my mouth
The infant hands that sewed my Nike′s
And everything I'm leaving out
