Scary

Björk · (Single Extras)

he means tomorrow but says in a bit
and doesn't show up at all
he sets his watch to a comet's orbit
remember to forget to call

no courage for love
too scared to be happy
no courage for love
too scared to be happy

I do... do

"your place or mine?" means "heaven or hell"
two adresses somewhat apart
his home's dark and spiky, hers clear as a bell
it's over before they can start

no courage for love
too scared to be happy
no courage for love
too scared to be happy

I-i-i-I do... don't

and tomorrow passed them by
and tomorrow passed them by

lala la la la la la
lala la la la lala...
