D#m A# D#m A#
D#m
Please listen closely
A#
I think you think you know what I want, but you don't
A#7
To want to know me
D#m D#
Is to ask me to ask you to tell, but you won't
G#m
And so we sit here
D#m
And talk in circles
A#
Pointed politeness
D#m
'Til we turn purple
B A#
Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls and talk like we've been married forty years?
[Verse 2]
D#m
And so we dance, dear
A#
Nose to nose but wanting to be mouth to mouth
A#7
Give it a chance, dear
D#m D#
Break the ice if there's ice, or at least ask me how
G#m
Because we sit here
D#m
Both with this knowing
A#
There's something under
D#m
Forever growing
B
Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls
A#
And not talk like we're married fifty years?
[Chorus]
D#m A# D#m A#
I know you're bored like me
[Verse 3]
D#m
So tell me kindly
A#
I wonder if you love like I love loving you
A#7
I'm going in blindly
D#m D#
So make the risk want the risk like I want you to do
G#m D#m
Just scrap the questions take off the masks
A# D#m
Let the curtain fall and lead me to the dark
B
Oh, darling are you there say a word
A#
I will not use this mouth for chatter anymore
[Chorus]
N.C. D#m A# D#m A#
Oh, I know you're bored like me
