A delicate song from her debut album that addresses, as much of the album does, her failing relationship. In this particular song, it’s about her failure to communicate what exactly she needs.
Ooh,ooh
Please don't take me lightly
I mean every word
Whichever way you'd like to place them
One day I'll be a better writer
I'll make every face
That I'll never perfectly phrase
Ooh, that I'll never perfectly phrase
You reached for my hand slowly
I didn't pull away
We did not have to be lips to face
My toe hit your toe lightly
Your toe met my heel right back
And I don't think I need much more than that
Ooh, ooh, ooh
And I don't think I need much more than that
You look at me so slyly
But only when I'm smiling
Every other time your head looks down
I sigh and then I frown
I write this moment down
'Cause I cannot paint pictures with my tongue
Ooh, ooh, ooh
No, I cannot paint pictures with my tongue
