Pico Vs. Island Trees - Saying The Opposite lyrics

So maybe I'll call you up Or would that ruin everything? Cos' you're so perfect now Unless there's something I've been missing And even if there was Maybe we could just pretend I could overlook those things And disregard the consequence But If I slip it in Would you let me? Can I take you in my arms And fly away? Knowing just what I've wanted to say But saying the opposite So I fumble around for a bit And look at my toes for the answers to questions Don't get me wrong I'm just so overcome by my lack of perfection I've practiced this in my dreams It's much harder than I had expected So I'll throw this out, despite all my doubts So misguided yet so directed If I slip it in Will you let me? Can I take you in my arms And fly away? Knowing just what I've wanted to say If I slip this in Will you let me? Can I take you in my arms And fly away Knowing just what I've wanted to say If I slip this in Can you promise? That you won't just throw this away Figured out what I've wanted to say I love you
