Ani Difranco Bubble Lyrics

Bubble Lyrics

I hated to pop the bubble of me and you

But it only held enough oxygen for a trip or two

To the moon and back again

Tell me, do you remember when our love had such grace

We were floating above this whole place



It's dawn on the corner where the city tests its squeaky breaks

Outside my bedroom window a Doppler muffler and a boomin' bass

It's dawn and the snow is turning on its deepest blue

So I go outside just to stand there and look at my hands against the color

I find I always return to



I want you to always remember for me baby, if you can

How much you hated the woman who made you a man

And remember for me won't you back further before that

How you loved her like a boy cried from the joy

When you weren't laughing



No, I hated to pop the bubble of me and you

But it only held enough oxygen for a trip or two

To the moon and back again

Do you remember when our love had such grace

We were floating above this whole place



So I hear these days you too are trying your hand at sleeplessness

A few more dizzying Doppler lovers and then a booming loneliness

How innocent the young student on the day school has begun

When I said this was what I wanted did you think I thought it would be fun?



No, I hated to pop the bubble of me and you

But it only held enough oxygen for a trip or two

To the moon and back again

Oh but I remember when our love had such grace

We were floating above this whole place
