C#m
Please listen closely
G#
I think you think you know what I want, but you don't
G#7
To want to know me
C#m C#
Is to ask me to ask you to tell, but you won't
F#m
And so we sit here
C#m
And talk in circles
G#
Pointed politeness
C#m
'Til we turn purple
A G#
Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls and talk like we've been married forty years?

C#m
And so we dance, dear
G#
Nose to nose but wanting to be mouth to mouth
G#7
Give it a chance, dear
C#m C#
Break the ice if there's ice, or at least ask me how

Because we sit here
C#m
Both with this knowing
G#
There's something under
C#m
Forever growing
A
Oh really, can we cut it all and break the walls
G#
And not talk like we're married fifty years?

I know you're bored like me

I'm going in blindly
C#m C#
So make the risk want the risk like I want you to do
