Loose Ends
Imogen Heap · Speak For Yourself (2005)
Meeting someone at the barÂ… where loose ends still have uses.
It's complicatedÂ… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
We're overrated, anyway.
We're kissing without kissingÂ… got it down to a fine art.
Love's supposed to keep you young and frisky; we grew up and wide apart.
Not now, not ever, noÂ… it's never a good time.
How will the good times ever roll along?
Comparing photos that are no longer there.
Just wonderingÂ…wonderingÂ…where it all went.
It's complicatedÂ… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
Nothing to salvage, anyway.
Oh, oh, oh none of the aboveÂ…
Oh, oh, oh none of the aboveÂ…
Oh, oh, oh none of the aboveÂ…
Oh, oh, ohÂ…
It's complicatedÂ… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
We're overrated, anyway.
It's complicatedÂ… this time, I think it could be.
Triangulated, it could be just what we need...
So what you say: we give it up and walk away?
Nothing to salvage, anyway.
