under covers

Did you ever see me as your lover
When you were lying in my bed
Was there another in between us under covers
Someone hiding in your head

I remember when you told me you were lonely
I said I could probably make that go away
You said: I only somebody who can hold me
Was it enough for you to want me here to stay

I can’t get out 'cause I'm in too deep
But I shouldn’t want you if you don’t want me

Your polaroids and old cassettes
Are all I have after you left me
Hanging on by a thread at the end of it

You kept me here to let me go
You loved me fast and killed me slow
When I only wanted to come home

Did you ever see me as your lover
When you were crying on my chest
Or was I the bandage holding you together
Using me to get some rest

I remember when you told me that you missed me
You were studying in Paris in the fall
You said honestly: I wish that you were with me
Days later you said you forgot to call
Damn

I can’t get out 'cause I'm in too deep
But I shouldn’t want you if you don’t want me

Your polaroids and old cassettes
Are all I have after you left me
Hanging on by a thread at the end of it

You kept me here to let me go
You loved me fast and killed me slow
When I only wanted to come home

I can’t get out 'cause I'm in too deep
But I shouldn’t want you if you don’t want me
