"Cobwebs" lyrics

I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul
I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul
I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul
I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul

Slow dancing on the snow-capped mountains
Of the park halfway between our rooms
So sweet we'd make a magpie swoon (So sweet we'd make a magpie swoon)

I'll trap butterflies in heartbeats
Feel their flutter in my veins
I just want to feel beauty on the inside (I just want to feel beauty on the inside)

I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul
I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul

I fill my mouth with flowers
Pray tell, I bloom when it matters
But the petals burst and decay
I just smile and walk away

I watch you from the staircase
As someone tears your precious heart away
And he's got my eyes, must be a
Stand-up kind of guy

I write this scene a thousand times
Each new actor corpses a new line
Now there are multitudes of me and you
But every tear shed hides a different truth

I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul
I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul

I fill my mouth with flowers
Pray tell, I bloom when it matters
But the petals burst and decay
I just smile and walk away

Wouldn't you love to be
Young and fragile again
Wouldn't you love to be
Young and fragile again
Tell me, wouldn't you love to be
Young and fragile again
Wouldn't you love to be
Young and fragile again
Wouldn't you love to be (It's quite alright to hate me now)
Young and fragile again (It's quite alright to hate me now)
Wouldn't you love to be (Well, it's alright to hate me now)
Young and fragile again (It's quite alright to hate me now)

I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul
I feel so old
There are cobwebs in my soul

I fill my mouth with flowers
Pray tell, I bloom when it matters
But the petals burst and decay
I just smile and walk away

I fill my mouth with flowers (Wouldn't you love to be)
Pray tell, I bloom when it matters (Young and fragile again)
But I'm the one who leaves (Wouldn't you love to be)
And you're the one who stays (Young)
