"A Tender Curiosity" lyrics

Both eyes locking on mine
I almost cower and hide
But I can't move, I'm stuck in place
Like a creature in your lights

I'm feeling awkward again (I'm feeling, feeling, I'm feeling)
Speech-impaired and thoughtless
But I'm your fool till the end
Oh, I'm the motorhome careening 'round the bend

I used to think that love was bounded
A precious metal bound to starve
But you open up quarries every time you come around (Around, around)
Now I wish, I wish

That tender curiosity
Was nothing like I thought it would be
You fell asleep in my arms
The skin-to-skin was much too far apart

(I used to think that love was bounded) Now I wish
(A precious metal bound to starve) I wish
(But you open up quarries every time you come around)
Now I wish, I wish
