[Verse 1]
You stand now holdin' yourself
A little moon is coming in the room
You stand there still
Like you were in the arms of everyone you ever wanted
[Refrain]
(I was watching you well)
I was watching you well
[Verse 2]
I won't stop you, I won't speak
The water on your cheek is the only thing smooth and
I'm ashamed that I'm ashamed of you
Standing in my room, lest more water overtake you
[Refrain]
And I was watching you, watching you well
[Bridge]
Why won't you leave me quicker?
Why won't you leave me? (Why won't you leave me?)
[Verse 3]
I'm ashamed that I'm ashamed of you
Standing in my room, lest more water overtake you
I don't stop you
And I don't speak
Why won't you leave me quicker?
Why won't you leave me?
[Outro]
That was good
That was really good
