Nerina Pallot - My Last Tango lyrics

Thousands, no millions of hours We've been skirting around this whole subject Like children stuck in a museum. And I'm dry now. My mouth will not speak, I'm weary and weak And I only wanted to see you again. If that's unfair, just let me know, Just write it down, and then I'll go. But you skate around my human skin An apple where your throat begins Just say.... Just tell the stars to give a sign, Put it in a bottle..... Say you're mine. And it's better, better than music, Better than words to be with you But better that we're apart. Can't you feel it? It's taken me over, left me for dead like Ophelia. Who knew a prince and survived? And so I ask in every line That I might learn of your design Because you skate around my human skin Your name is where my heart begins Just say.... Just tell the stars to give a sign, Put it in a bottle... Say you're mine. Because you skate around my human skin Your name is where my heart begins Just say.... Just tell the stars to give a sign, Put it in a bottle... Say you're mine.
