The Verve Pipe - Barely (If At All) lyrics

When my love complained, every word A breath on my last dandelion And so lovers will leave and their tears Souvenirs for the very first time I searched the world reluctant To find a lover enthusiastic Speak to me barely if at all When I was a boy, funny things Water wings kept you confident A belly of wine, similar To keep yourself indifferent And I scraped the bargain basement Bought a lover less than fantastic Spoke to me barely if at all Taste perfume that burns my throat And I am free of envelope Squeeze an instant out of me And she placed a hand between our lips How could anything be so precious She kissed me barely if at all And she, with her hand between our lips Gave me what we now have in common She left me barely if at all
