What I'm Trying To Say

You look so good in the clothes of a poser
 And when you smiled all the kids fell apart here
 I know a place where it's warm and it's dry, dear
 Let me take you there
 North of the river all the streets are the same
 We can pretend that they don't know our name
 And the heat is turned all the way to full
 So don't pretend that you don't feel the pull
 I am trying to say
 What I want to say
 Without having to say
 "I love you"

 You look so good in the shoes of an outcast
 I kissed your throat every time they said it wouldn't last
 But then I knew you, I knew you, I knew you
 I really knew you
 We fell apart in the parties of the empty heart
 We danced the junkies in the shadows of bad modern art
 We clicked our heels and we wished we were home
 One more tab and your silk hits the chrome
 I am trying to say
 What I want to say
 Without having to say
 "I love you"
 I am trying to say
 What I want to say
 Without having to say
 "I love you"

 Springs comes in when I'm rolling up another one
 I draw the curtains in the glare of the same old sun
 We are collapsed in the act of just being here
 Three blues, two greens and a beer
 We are collapsed in the act of just being here
 Three blues, two greens and a beer
 I am trying to say
 What I want to say
 Without having to say
 "I love you"
 I am trying to say
