Wooden Lips

Wooden lips, wooden lips
I got wooden lips and I think it's fair to say
Don't wait around to kiss them right now
Don't wait around feeling down
You see, every part of me is made of wood
Animals hide in the tree trunks of me
Til the winter is through
Til the winter is through
Don't kiss my wooden lips til the winter's through
Don't kiss my wooden lips, just hold my wooden hand

Nothing Has To Be

Nothing has to be
Nothing has to be anything
Nothing has to be
Nothing has to be anything
Sometimes it's a quiet voice asking me
If I've ever heard a certain song
And it's in the way you hug me every time
So electric I can't get over it
Is it really all inside my own head?
There is absolutely nothing I can do about it either way
I can see through you
Can you see through me?
I can see an alternate dimension
Where you and I met and we fell in love so hard
We spent the happiest of lives together
Or maybe we just spent one bad night
Nothing has to be
Nothing has to be anything
Nothing has to be
Nothing has to be anything
Sometimes I just want to get you right into my bed
And you make me doubt everything about reality
So I'll try to get over it til I'm blue in the heart
So so so blue in the heart
Is it really all inside my own head?
There is absolutely nothing I can do about it either way
I can see through you
Can you see through me?
I can see an alternate dimension
Where you and I met and we fell in love so hard
We spent the happiest of lives together
Or maybe we just spent one bad night

Get The Picture

In some forest, on some other mountain
Sunlight streams along the forest floor
In some picture in someone else's drawer
You are the one and only picture
And you don't know it's yours
No matter how hard you try
You'll never know what it's like
To live in someone else's mind
No matter how hard you try
You'll never know what the life
You lead is like in someone else's mind
But you'll try and get the picture
And I'd keep it for you if you want me to
I would give it to you if you wanted me to
I would give it to you to stomp into the muddy ground outside
And in my mind you are a glimmering forest
And the day you wore a navy purple turquoise brown stripe sweater
And leaned along a green and velvet couch
A moment picture perfect
The sweater and your smiling
A green and velvet afternoon image of love
And you don't know it's yours
No matter how hard you try
You'll never know what it's like
To live in someone else's mind
No matter how hard you try
You'll never know what the life
You lead is like in someone else's mind
But do you live in your picture?
Well I'd keep it for you if you want me to
I would give it to you if you wanted me to
I would give it to you to stomp into the muddy ground outside
No matter how hard you try
You'll never know what the life
You lead is like in someone else's mind

Only You Would Know

The wind was stirring in a deep sleep
Off and away
And when I woke I felt the sweetest creepy calm
Dawn was dancing through the still screen
Whispering sweet nothings to me
And when it changed it happened eerily suddenly
Only you would know
Why the window was left open late last night into the morning
Only you would know
Why the wind blew over us and under the blanket soft and cold
Only you would know

Into Summer

Is it too much
When the spring is filling up
And spilling over into blood
Into summer
Is it too much
When you're spinning and you're spinning
Til you're sick of almost everyone around you
When I release the balloon into the gentle air
Don't try to pop it with your jealous lies
Is it too much
When we feel this infinite
Standing in an alley hidden from the changing city
Is it too much
When I feel this intimate
With the way your laughter blends into the moonlight
Til they become one shining thread
Don't try to pull it
It will only lead you backward
Is it too much
When the spring is filling up
And spilling over into blood
Into summer
When I release the balloon into the gentle air
Don't try to pop it with your jealous lies
