Lyrics
You had a dream, you wanted better
– Somnium habuisti, melius voluisti
You were sick of all the holes in your sweater
– Tu es infirmus omnium foraminum in thorace tuo
You looked to me and wondered whether
– Tu me miraris et quaeris si
I was the lamppost to which you were tethered
– Sunt [do] qui optio, sint ut et sapiente distinctio.
I’m lookin’ at you, and you’re lookin’ at me
– Ego te interrogo, et tu me derides
But the glimmer in your eyes is sayin’ you wanna leave
– Et fugit ad salices, et se cupit ante videri.”
You say you don’t mean what you’re sayin’ to me
– Tu dicis non intelligo quod tu dicis ‘ mihi
But the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things
– Sed lumen in oculis tuis alia mihi narrat
I don’t wanna get undressed
– Non quia blanditiis
For a new person all over again
– Nam novus homo totus super iterum
I don’t wanna kiss someone else’s neck
– Non volo osculari collum alterius
And have to pretend it’s yours instead
– Et simulare potius tuum est
I took the train to see my mother
– Tuli agmen ad matrem meam
I look across the track to see you with another
– Ego vultus trans semita ut vos cum alio
There’s nothin’ worse than seein’ your lover
– Illic ‘nothin’ peius quam seein ‘ amans tuus
Moving on while you still suffer
– Si quid movendum est quandoque patietur
I’m lookin’ at you, and you’re lookin’ at me
– Ego te interrogo, et tu me derides
But the glimmer in your eyes is sayin’ you wanna leave
– Et fugit ad salices, et se cupit ante videri.”
You say you don’t mean what you’re sayin’ to me
– Tu dicis non intelligo quod tu dicis ‘ mihi
But the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things
– Sed lumen in oculis tuis alia mihi narrat
I don’t wanna get undressed
– Non quia blanditiis
For a new person all over again
– Nam novus homo totus super iterum
I don’t wanna kiss someone else’s neck
– Non volo osculari collum alterius
And have to pretend it’s yours instead
– Et simulare potius tuum est
And I don’t wanna learn another scent
– Et non volo alium odorem discere
I don’t want the children of another man
– Nolo enim filii alterius hominis
To have the eyes of the girl that I won’t forget
– Habere oculos puellae quod non obliviscar
I won’t forget
– Non obliviscar
I don’t wanna get undressed
– Non quia blanditiis
For a new person all over again
– Nam novus homo totus super iterum
I don’t wanna kiss someone else’s neck
– Non volo osculari collum alterius
And have to pretend it’s yours instead
– Et simulare potius tuum est
I don’t wanna get undressed
– Non quia blanditiis
For a new person all over again
– Nam novus homo totus super iterum
