"Like A Light" lyrics

"Like A Light"

Well, if beauty and pain are one in the same
Then seeing you is like cutting off my arms
Yeah, you've got twiggy legs and you smoke cigarettes
But one smile sets my heart off like a car alarm
One smile sets my heart off like a bomb

But you said:
"I'm too fucked up for a relationship right now
If I loved you, girl, I'd wanna do it right
I'll let you know, if I figure it out"
You kissed your bottle and you passed out like a light
You kissed your bottle and you passed out like a light

At that party I Ieft early
You got really wasted and told everyone you wanted me the most
So my brain went electric with anticipation
And the jubilee of you and me being more than close
Saying, the jubilee of being more than close

I collected my courage like shiny face-up pennies
And I held out my confession in my hand
You apologized real small, said you'd had one too many
I asked you for an ocean and you filled my heart with sand
I asked you and you filled my heart with sand

You said:
"I'm too fucked up for a relationship right now
If I loved you, girl, I'd wanna do it right
I'll let you know, if I figure it out"
You kissed your bottle and you passed out like a light
You kissed your bottle and you passed out like a light

I guess Valentine's Day didn't mean a thing
And you like reading poetry to pals
You think fate brought us together
And you're so glad that you met me
But romantic inclinations are simply not allowed
Yeah, wanting you is simply not allowed

So I found this nice guy and he's really organized
And he smells reals nice when we go out on dates
And I like that he's kind and he likes being mine
And he's not educated in the way the heart breaks
No, he's got no clue how to make a heart break

Yeah

You're too fucked up for a relationship right now
You know I love you, but you're simply not alright
I hope you find a girl and figure your shit out
I hope she's sweet, I hope she's deep, I hope she's bright
I hope you love her for the rest of your long fuckin' life
I hope you love her for the rest of your life
