Say Back Something Lyrics
say back something
why don't you meet me in the morning?
say back something
my arms will meet you in the air
when you say come back
why don't you mean it in the morning?
when i say come back
my hands will meet you in the air
clouds have got your head
there's silence in our bed
and arms and legs of lead
and i, oh, i'm so scared
say back something
why can't you look me in the eyes?
stuck in the undertow
and i still hold out
why won't you meet me in the morning?
salt has drowned my head
and i've been so mislead
by the comfort of our bed
and i, oh i'm so scared
no i, no i'm so scared
you mean it all?
then say it all
and i'll be in our bed
why don't you meet me in the morning?
say back something
my arms will meet you in the air
when you say come back
why don't you mean it in the morning?
when i say come back
my hands will meet you in the air
there's silence in our bed
and arms and legs of lead
and i, oh, i'm so scared
why can't you look me in the eyes?
stuck in the undertow
and i still hold out
why won't you meet me in the morning?
and i've been so mislead
by the comfort of our bed
and i, oh i'm so scared
no i, no i'm so scared
then say it all
and i'll be in our bed

probably my favorite song off of the album. i haven't pondered any deep meaning to the lyrics, but i love the instrumentals
My favorite song off of this cd. Beautiful in every aspect.
I think this song is about the sinking feeling at the seeming end of a long-term relationship.
maybe he has mistaken comfort, and effortless-ness for love? "and i've been so mislead by the comfort of our bed and i, oh i'm so scared"
it's a boy in love with a girl. he doesn't know if she feels the same or is just being led on. she is hesitant. he wants her to SAY BACK SOMETHING
