And maybe you just need a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one left now.
And maybe you just need a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one laughing.
And very anxiously
And very anxiously, I see
These clouds that I can't see
There's no one left and
You will be safe with me.
And maybe you just need a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one laughing.
You will be safe in here.
And very anxiously
And very anxiously, I see
This closet that you're in
There's no one left now
You will be safe with me.
And maybe you should sleep
And maybe you just need a friend
As clumsy as you've been
There's no one laughing
You will be safe in here.
Can't breathe when you touch me, Steve.
Can't breathe when you touch me, sleep
You got me trippin' oh, stumblin' oh, slippin' oh, fumblin' oh
All because I'm fallin' in love
You got me trippin' oh, stumbling oh, flippin' oh, fumbling oh
Clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love
You mellow out, mellow out, mellow out
It's not alright now
You never understand
There's nothing strange about this.
You level out, level out, level out
It's not alright now
You need to understand
There's nothing strange about this.
