Show me some lightning breaking a prism's fingers Don't do the right thing if it'll turn you bitter I'm frightened of the way my head is building you a nineties house I'm terrified you'll tear it down You get me laughing when you're not acting funny There in your fashion, do you think you could love me? You got a jacket, and I still have it Hanging in the front entrance Holding my breath and Keeping the scent still precious I'm pressed to find a way to stop me building you that nineties house I'm terrified you'll tear it down So many things outweigh us but in my head there's a nineties house Nothing's gonna tear it down Doing the laundry Sit at the table Pouring the wine while you look out the window Play the piano Tend to the garden Could it be everything you ever wanted Tangerine peeling Listen to "ceilings" You buy me plums 'til they're out of season Cleaning the baseboards Kissing your splinters Closing my eyes Maybe that's what I picture Maybe that's what I picture I'm frightened of the way my head is building you a nineties house I'm terrified you'll let me down
