Studies In Love # 12 - Jewel

The doorway frames
You a perfect picture silouette
Blue sky of regret
Enough to hang out
Your legs seemed to tremble
At least I imagine that they do
Then again, it's probably easy For you

Please don't open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs I can take it from here
There's no need to explain
It's perfectly clear

The yellow wall paper peels
A strange halo around your head
It's funny how you notice these
Stupid things instead

You say something awkward
But I wish that you wouldn't
A whole life of you wish you could's
But just couldn't

Please don't open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs I can take it from here
There's no need to explain
It's perfectly clear

I try not to fight too much
It only just makes me mad
Spent half my life loving you
Think of all the love that I could have had

Five years of kisses
Packed in my bags
And this tiny moment fits
All the big things we ever had
I can't quite pinpoint
When it left or what for
Love always steps lightly
Away from the door

Please don't open your mouth my dear
I can read all the signs Hell I've known you for years
There's no need to explain
No there's no need to explain
There's no need to explain
It's perfectly clear
