Loom

How do I make you fall in love with me? And how would I let you know I care? And how would I say that the man you're laying with Is not the man that should be laying there? How would a boy like me put it? A man with some sense probably wouldn't But I don't give a damn, I am not a smart man I'm gonna say some words I shouldn't And I had a dream I was falling And maybe that's a fucked up metaphor Maybe it just means, when I meet you in my dreams Nothing stops me from going through the floor And I know all the bad things about you But I still think you're the purest of our kind I remember being younger with an awful pining hunger For a good that a boy could never find And the fear of a man still left behind So I guess I'll just love you from the window While you're dancing with the charmers in the room And I'll sneak out that door like I have a time before And just let that lost love loom And just let that lost love loom How do I make you fall in love with me? Is it lost in the emptiness of apathy? Should I fight for it like war, should I nail it down to boards Or do I live in a love I'm dying for? And how do I make you fall in love with me? And how do I let you know I care? And how would I say that the man you're laying with Is not the man that should be laying there?
