When it’s obvious
That you don’t have to pay attention
When it’s obvious
That you’ll remember all the details

Still wearing your sweater
Trying to find something to talk about
Frantically I look around the room
No luck

If you come close
Closer than before
I’m really gonna die
(Die)

I could stay in tangles for the rest of my immortal life
If it’s up to me
I could stay in tangles down to the last minute of this month
When you have to leave
Are you sure you have to leave at all
Are you sure you have to leave at all
(My heartbeat, my bright pink nails)
(My heartbeat, my light blue nails)
(My heartbeat, my purple nails)
(My heartbeat, my yellow nails)

Every minute is essential
All the pieces fall into place
Good or bad, anything
This what will shape my past

Are you sure you have to leave at all
Are you sure you have to leave at all
(I could stay in tangles for the rest of my immortal life)
(If it’s up to me)
(I could stay in tangles down to the last minute of this month)
(When you have to leave)

Alone at last
Not a soul or shadow cast
I have your full attention
Even with my averted eyes

What a beautiful day and place
What a way to fall flat on my face
What a wonderful voice you use
What a way to learn what I’ll lose

You say you can’t
But that you want to
(You have to leave)
(You have to leave)

You’re going back
To where you came from
(I really thought)
(We’d find a way)

And I can’t come
With you and stay, so soon
(I’m left right here all alone)
And I can’t come
With you and stay, so soon
(I’m left right here all alone)

Next time we meet
Will be our last time
(I secretly hope)
(You’re coming back)
