Lyrics

You offered me a cigarette, I pirouette... with sihlouettes of statuettes
We're ice behind a window. would you be my widow? would you even be my
Wife? life's not long enough for questions of sessions over cakes and
Coffees. therapy, I've had enough of - I want to change things overnight
Because I've been alone too long.. too long.. too long..

And you say you understand me when I hardly know myself
So much talk so many theories - it's really such a bore for me
The story stays the same - it goes on and on..
What gives you the right to analyze? you paralyze me with your probing
In the end I just agree... maybe we're just puppets after all
Love puppets. (not glove puppets! hearts of gold, souls on string
My soul's on a string... love puppets! my heart's a shiny gold.)

Why the tricks? why the teasers? can't I even please you for an hour?
Won't you simply listen? I've got a lot to say
About us and plans and things that we could do..
(I need you now don't leave me...)
