Message To My Girl (N Finn) Lyrics

 I don't want to say I love you
 That would give away too much
 (it's) Hip to be detached and precious 
 The only thing you feel is vicious

 I don't wanna say I want you
 Even though I want you so much
 It's wrapped up in conversation
 It's whispered in a hush
  Though I'm frightened by the word
  Think it's time that it was heard

  No more empty self-possession
  Vision swept under the mat
  It's no new years resolution
  It's more than that

 And now I wake up happy
 Warm in a lovers embrace
 No one else can touch us
 While we're in this place
  So I'll sing it to the world
  This simple message to my girl

  No more empty self-possession
  Vision swept under the mat
  It's no new years resolution
  It's more than that
  --
  Though I'm frightened by the word
  Think it's time I made it heard
  So I sing it to the world
  Simple message to my girl

  No more empty self-possession
  Vision swept under the mat
  It's no new years resolution
  It's more than that

  No there's nothing quite as real
  As a touch of your sweet hand
  I can't spend the rest of my life
  Buried in the sand.
