Lyric Message To My Girl (N Finn)

I don t want to say I love you
That would give away too much
(it s) Hip to be detached and precious
The only thing you feel is vicious

I don t wanna say I want you
Even though I want you so much
It s wrapped up in conversation
It s whispered in a hush
Though I m frightened by the word
Think it s time that it was heard

No more empty self-possession
Vision swept under the mat
It s no new years resolution
It s more than that

And now I wake up happy
Warm in a lovers embrace
No one else can touch us
While we re in this place
So I ll sing it to the world
This simple message to my girl

No more empty self-possession
Vision swept under the mat
It s no new years resolution
It s more than that
--
Though I m frightened by the word
Think it s time I made it heard
So I sing it to the world
Simple message to my girl

No more empty self-possession
Vision swept under the mat
It s no new years resolution
It s more than that

No there s nothing quite as real
As a touch of your sweet hand
I can t spend the rest of my life
Buried in the sand.
