    Lyrics

    Drawn to you
    There’s a face that is yours
    Sudden and inevitable

    Drawn to you
    Oh we’ll never know why
    No we’ll never know why for sure

    There was something in the wintertime
    Something in the wintertime

    Always go
    To the house that is loaded
    With tales asking to be told
    More than love
    Make ourselves vulnerable
    In the name of evolution

    There was something in the wintertime
    Something in the wintertime

    Now look
    What we’ve done
    Shared this life
    Our only one

    Drawn to you
    Cause we cried for our condition
    Drawn to you
    Still it swept us from under

    There was something in the wintertime
    Something in the wintertime

     

    Show me the face
    Of the one I’ll love
    Cause I’ve run out
    Of preconceived notions

    Show me the face
    Of the one I’ll love
    Cause I’ve satisfied
    All my preconceived notions

    Show me the face
    Show me the face
    Show me the face
    That could break my heart next

    All of the ones I dreamed
    All of the ones I could conceive
    Have spent the night with me
    So show me the face

     

    Acid broke the spell of a lovelorn season
    Acid broke the spell and I can’t believe it

    Woke up and to my surprise
    The magic gone from your eyes
    Who said there was no cure for love was wrong
    Cause I found one

    Acid broke the spell of a lovelorn season
    Acid broke the spell I still can’t believe it

    My life I bowed to the muse
    Resigned that I always would
    The sky went pink and spring rose up like god
    Over the spell of love

     

    The sunlight looks so beautiful on your dying face
    Gives a sense of urgency to our kiss

    Even the flowers on parade
    Fear soon their cameos will end

    We are friends because we know how much it means
    Sharing in the story given the ending

    Somewhere someone now writes our names
    But this edition’s limited

    So when we touch let’s keep in mind
    This flesh is rotting all the time
    And when we make love be advised
    Tomorrow we could both evaporize
    If there’s something you desire
    Confess it now while we’re alive
    And when we make love keep in mind
    That there’s a universe inside
    This sexy creature

    Somewhere someone now writes our names
    But this edition’s limited

    So when we touch let’s keep in mind
    This flesh is rotting all the time
    And when we make love be advised
    Tomorrow we could both evaporize
    If there’s something you desire
    Confess it now while we’re alive
    And when we make love keep in mind
    That there’s a universe inside
    This sexy creature

     

    Who’s missing from the picture?
    It’s the one I love
    Who’s missing from the picture?
    It’s the one I love

    New year’s eve in the company of strangers
    New year’s eve in the company of strangers

    Who’s missing from the picnic?
    It’s the one I love
    Who’s name is never spoken?
    It’s the one I love

    New year’s eve in the company of strangers
    New year’s eve loves the company of strangers

    We should meet
    We should really meet again
    We just need to fuck again
    There are no favors to be done
    For anyone

    This is ridiculous
    You’re an idiot
    Let’s just get it over with
    Soon we’ll both be dead you bitch
    What your dreams say is obvious
    You cannot spare anyone

    So come..
    Come….
    Come…….

    Let’s meet

     

    The light has shone on you tonight
    But I’ll go walking through the darkened streets alone
    And fall asleep with a smile
    Saving my pennies cause the oracle told me so

    ooooh –
    I’ve learned to trust my head to turn
    ooooh –
    For the feature presentation

    I know your ex from mexico
    Taught you something that I have never seen before
    But efficiency is not the goal
    I’ll trade the magician for the eager clumsy soul

    ooooh –
    And soon my head is gonna turn
    ooooh –
    Right into the next dimension

    The light has shone on you tonight
    But I’ll go walking through the darkened streets alone
    And fall asleep with a smile
    Saving my pennies cause the oracle told me so

    The ship is near and I’m on time
    By being alone needing a woman’s touch tonight
    The ship is near and I’m on time
    By being alone needing a woman’s touch tonight

     

    I’m walking in the streets tonight
    Walking aimlessly tonight
    The direction to your house

    There is a great intelligence
    Leading me to climb the stairs
    Climb the stairs up to your house

    Go!
    To the smell that calls to you
    Where the animal leads you
    Even when you don’t know
    Why you ought to go

     

    On the wrong side of the fence
    You will live the rest of your days
    With the seed planted from my lips
    Spread to your every crevice
    Where the need grows unbearable

    For the rest of your life
    You’ll replay-play-play-play-play
    You’ll wish so bad that you’d gone
    All the way-way-way-way

    Here’s the spell I cast on you

    On the wrong side of the fence
    Where you keep easy company
    Longing for what was so intense
    An acquired taste you’ll come to crave
    To the memory you’ll grow a slave

    Laying awake in your bed
    You’ll replay-play-play-play-play
    Compulsively trying to rewrite
    The end-end-end-end

    Here’s the spell I cast on you

    And you’ll see me on the street
    The hand you’ll hold will feel so wrong
    But you’ll get used to it
    There’ll never be a woman like me

    On the wrong side of the fence
    You have hereby been sentenced
    With the seed planted from my lips
    Germinated to each crevice
    Where the need grows to festering

    And you’ll see me on the street
    Just still your heart cause from now on
    It’s easy company
    There’ll never be a woman like me
    You’ll never meet a woman like me
    You’ll never meet another woman like me

     

    If I’m quick to offer my love
    It’s just cause I don’t believe
    Sometimes I get the suspicion
    My love is a mockery

    But for you I want to be real
    And let you in on the deal

    Come and tell me the one thing
    You don’t want me to know
    It’s always the only worthwhile
    Topic of discussion

    Cause it’s no compliment
    To be the perfect lover
    To not share your confusion
    It’s no compliment

    And if we are brave and confess
    We’re not in love anymore
    We’re united in our fuckedupness
    Naked upon the floor

    Cause it’s no compliment
    To be the perfect lover
    To not share your confusion
    It’s no compliment

     

    Your eyes
    Never got used to life
    I love your eyes
    They never got used to life
    We met
    On the periphery
    A gang of loners is
    The only gang for me

    How can it be?
    That it only takes a second
    For life to scatter all
    The thoughts we have collected
    I love your eyes
    They never cease to be overwhelmed
    God bless my socially retarded friends

    Who could ever have foreseen
    Such a funny looking face
    Would be standing over me
    Now it ends with your funny face
    Who could ever have foreseen
    It would end with your funny face

    It’s true we will remember
    It’s true we will forget

    How can it be?
    That it only takes a second
    For life to scatter all
    The thoughts we have collected
    I love your eyes
    They never cease to be overwhelmed
    God bless my socially retarded friends
