[Verse 1]
Don't come 'round tonight
Don't want you to see me cry
'Cause my face is red and ugly
I'm afraid that you won't love me
[Verse 2]
He comes 'round anyway
Holds my face says, "It's okay"
"I brought movies and a disc drive
I'll hold your hand at midnight"
[Chorus 1]
That flicker on the screen
You sit close to me
I can finally breathe
And you rest your hand
On my pyjama pants
Feel my heart beat fast
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Can we call today?
I just need to see your face
'Cause it melts me to a puddle
Trip on air and sprain my ankle
[Verse 4]
He's a lavender bouquet
Spray it on my pillowcase
Make me warmer in the summer
Like the pigments in your fingers
[Chorus 2]
Lеt's go brush our teeth
Stand here next to mе
Get them squeaky clean
And you rest your head
On my upper chest
Hear my heart beat fast
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Wanna make you feel
Gentle than the silk
Stronger than steel
Show 'em how to be calm
Wrap him 'round my arm
Remind each other what's a lie and what is real
[Outro]
What if we held hands
In our pyjama pants?
While our hearts beat calmly at last
Mm-mm, mm-mm, hmm
Don't come 'round tonight
Don't want you to see me cry
'Cause my face is red and ugly
I'm afraid that you won't love me
[Verse 2]
He comes 'round anyway
Holds my face says, "It's okay"
"I brought movies and a disc drive
I'll hold your hand at midnight"
[Chorus 1]
That flicker on the screen
You sit close to me
I can finally breathe
And you rest your hand
On my pyjama pants
Feel my heart beat fast
[Instrumental Break]
