"I'm Tongue-Tied" lyrics

"I'm Tongue-Tied"

I'm tongue tied and useless
I'm weak-kneed and brainless
And then
I mumble some jumble
You kiss me
I'm history
I'm tongue-tied and useless again

My heart pounds
I make sounds
My ears hum

My head pops
The shoe drops
I'm struck dumb

I'm tongue-tied and useless
I'm weak-kneed and brainless
And then
I mumble some jumble
You kiss me
I'm history
I'm tongue-tied
And useless again

You say things
The room swings
I feel faint

I've no doubt
I'll black out
Grand, love ain't

I don't die
I say "hi"
How clever

I turn blue
I love you
Forever

I'm tongue-tied and useless
I'm weak-kneed and brainless
And then
I mumble some jumble
You kiss me
I'm history
I'm tongue-tied
And useless again
I'm tongue-tied
And useless again
