Like the stone at her feet   She is a victim of gravity   The unbearable colour of things   Gets her down, down, down      And as her raincoat covers me   We know it was never raining      She says, that she needs me    Says that she needs me   Says that she wants me   Says that she needs me   Say that you want me   Say that you need me   and I’m sorry it was me   Was I thinking out loud      Like strings in a fan   The shoelaces were undone   The solitude reflection of her fate   Gets her down, down, down      And as the shadow covers me   I thought she was only sleeping      She says, that she wants me    Says that she needs me   Says that she wants me   Says that she needs me   Say that you want me   Say that you need me   I am sorry it was me   Was I thinking out loud      Her clothes on the floor   Underwear silverlined   The smell of lavender and tar   Brings me down, down, down      If the telephone should ring   God knows it could never be her      She says, that she wants me    Says that she needs me   Says that she wants me   Says that she needs me   Say that you want me   Say that you need me   Say that you want me   Say that you need me   Say that you want me   Say that you need me   I am sorry it was me   Was I thinking out loud
