|
Staring up into the solar system, |
|
All the stars are fixed up in the sky. |
|
I just want to sparkle for a moment |
|
Before I just fizzle out and die. |
|
I'm happy because |
|
I'm stupid. |
|
Scared of spiders, scared of flying. |
|
If I wasn't so happy, |
|
I wouldn't be so scared of dying. |
|
So just be gentle with me (I'm not as young as I was) |
|
And I'll be gentle with you |
|
I'm not as brave as |
|
I thought ' |
|
Cause my heart gets broken so easily. |
|
So just be gentle, be gentle with me. |
|
Wide awake, waiting like a target |
|
Listening for things |
|
I cannot see. |
|
Insects flutter up against my window. |
|
I don't like the way they look at me i guess |
|
I've always needed |
|
To be needed by someone. |
|
It's a comforting feeling |
|
Being under someone's thumb. |
|
So just be gentle with me (And if I am ever mean) |
|
And I'll be gentle with you |
|
I never mean to be mean ' |
|
Cause I want to pick peaches off of a cherry tree. |
|
Just be gentle, be gentle, be gentle, |
|
Be gentle with me. |
|
So just be gentle with me |
|
Trouble is sometimes |
|
And I'll be gentle with you |
|
I just can't switch myself off |
|
When I want to so |
|
I never do |
|
Because I'm mental, be gentle, be gentle, |
|
Just be gentle, be gentle, be gentle |
|
And I'll be gentle, be gentle, be gentle,be gentle with you. |
