Duncan Sheik Little Hands Lyrics

Little Hands Lyrics

Some sweet perversion 

On the telephone line 

I've been waiting for such
a very long time 

For her to be free 

The evening was nice 

But
there were too many people 

And all my thoughts so depraved and evil


Oh lord what would she say 



(she says:) I'm afraid it's not to be


You're a sweet guy but you ain't for me 

I live my life in a different
way 

You know those things you're thinking 

Are a big mistake






We stayed out late 'til morning came 

I said "I'll take you
home 

If its all the same" 

Her indifference fills the room 

Some
weak seduction on the morning after 

How it slays me every time I touch her


But she just wants to sleep 



(she says:) How long 'til you
understand 

The last thing that I need is another man 

Didn't you
promise to give it a rest 

Right now I need a lover 

Like a hole, like
a hole in the head 



Oh well, can't blame a guy for tryin' 

And I'm
smiling even though I'm dying 

To know the love she says will never be




One last conversation in the crowded bar 

And even thought the
music is louder by far 

I hear every word she says 



(she says:)
Don't take it bad don't worry about it 

You're a friend of mine and there's
no way around it 

Sometimes you there early sometimes you get there late


But even if you had a chance you never knew the game 



Little
hands, open smile 

I'm glad we got to talk for a while 

I feel O.K.
yeah I'm feeling better 

I'll let it go but I'll never say never 

It's
O.K. yeah, it's O.K.
