In A Room All By Ourselves

from Elmer and the Ceramic Trees by Elmer and the Ceramic Trees

lyrics

So happy we were face-to-face
In a room all by ourselves
With empty gestures filled with love
And a feeling I couldn't sell
We're falling over each other
And I'd try to laugh it off
But I wouldn't know how to do it

We locked the door took off our clothes
Prepared to show our scars and scabs
Then I wrapped the sheets around myself
Until the night had passed
A silence harder than pavement
And if you felt there was something there
Well then why couldn't you just say it?

You were never mine to lose

As the palace burned our love decayed
With its beauty still intact
When the smoke had cleared I kissed your face
You put your clothes back on and ran
And I still breath for your closeness
But I'm running out of breath because the situation's hopeless

You were never mine to lose.
