I've got problems rolling off of my finger tips
I've got the weight of the world left of both my lips
Stop tempin', temptin' me, temptin', temptin' me with your collar bones
And churchhall-banging dancefloor-hips

You've got a turn around smile I could turn style
Build me up, tear me down let me bun for awhile
You're gettin', gettin' me gettin' gettin' me so, so easily
With irony and lyrical miles

Everybody takes a step towards the city when then find out what they want
But they know they'll never get it
I get what I want but did I get what I needed
A big love
Yeah that'd be enough

You say your history
Well baby history sure misses me
I'm terribly concerned with the conception of you kissin' me
Talkin' talkin' big, talkin', talkin' big but we both know
It's a terrible idea to be missed

So take me on down to the big towns
We'll dress like our dreams, like we know the sound
Cause you and me we're bringin' us down and
Makin' problems out of being around

Everybody takes a step towards the city when then find out what they want
But they know they'll never get it
I get what I want but did I get what I needed
Did I get what I needed
Did I get what I needed
What you needed was for me to be

Everybody takes a step towards the city when then find out what they want
But they know they'll never get it
I get what I want but did I get what I needed
I get what I want but did I get what I needed

Everybody takes a step towards the city when then find out what they want
But they know they'll never get it
I get what I want but did I get what I needed
I get what I want but did I get what I needed
I get what I want but did I get what I needed
