in a heartbeat
in the smallest movement of your hand
in a silence
in the wonderful cover of night
under blankets and sheets
where i sat at your feet
in that intoxicating place
where desire and unspoken limits meet
with the dull pewter blue off a muted t.v.
lines redrawn in real time as we adjust our boundaries
in this moment
with a forcefield of brazen uncertainty
in a friends house
in the living room by shaky candle light
waitin on a friend to leave
now your legs splay across my lap
my hands rest on your knees
pendulum pulse in my ears
like a drunken timpani
oh to fit snugly beside you
to renege this tacit treaty
with courage and clumsiness
with bravery and stupidity
woah you better watch your step
you're breaking a heart that you haven't won yet
i say woah you better watch your step
as you're moving past moments that i cannot forget
surveying your options and hoarding your bets
an autonomous zone between *** and regret
woah!
there's an album in my head
of the songs that we sang
i can't quite get the verse
and the chorus seems tame
every other day or so i google image search your name
but there's only one picture and its always the same
i haven't memorized the lyrics
i downloaded this mp3
printed out the bass tabs
faked my way around the key
i'm working on a version that should jog your memory
although maybe a jog seems ambitious
maybe we should crawl
woah you better watch your step
you're breaking a heart that you haven't won yet
i say woah you better watch your step
as you're moving past moments that i cannot forget
