If you wait for a bit
Before you say, that I can't have
What I want the most
And waited for fairly long
Then I'd ask you
If we can play pretend
Where your arms are warm
And you hold me tight
A little longer
Don't you understand
That when time is up
There will still be a shed skin
Of what we had together?
Cause I've laid myself naked
In your hearttub
It would seem like I drowned
But I'm holding my breath
If I wait for a bit
To break our secret
Then we can pretend
That this which takes long
Can actually last
I don't need to ask you
No, you know that I know you
I know your eyes and lies
And oddities
A little longer
Don't you understand
That when time is up
There will still be a shed skin
Of what we had together?
Cause I've laid myself naked
In your hearttub
It would seem like I drowned
But I'm holding my breath
A little longer, a little longer, a little longer
A little longer, a little longer, a little longer
Cause a star is bright before it falls down
Our liaison became loneliness, yeah, yeah
Yes a star is dead, it has fallen down
Our loneliness became eternity, yeah, yeah
A little longer, a little longer, a little longer
A little longer, a little longer, a little longer
Don't you understand
That when time is up
There will still be a shed skin
Of what we had together?
Cause I've laid myself naked
In your hearttub
It would seem like I drowned
But I'm holding my breath
A little longer
