We could bring a blanket for the grass
Cover up your eyes so you don't see
If you let me go I'm running fast
One two three count one two three
We could watch the black birds cross the skies
We could count the leaves left on the trees
We could count the teardrops in our eyes
One two three yeah one two three
One two three yeah one two three
Now you know now you know
How I feel and I won't back down
Prick your finger on a spinning wheel
But don't make a sound
Drop of blood and now you're taken
For all time
With a kiss you will awaken
And you'll be mine you'll be mine you'll be mine
I could always stay and work it out
Wondering if you still wanted me
But there are so many things to doubt
One two three count one two three
Think that for a moment you were mine
I know that you saw what we could be
But then you went and changed your mind
One two three yeah one two three
One two three yeah one two three
Now you know now you know
How I feel and I won't back down
Prick your finger on a spinning wheel
But don't make a sound
Drop of blood and now you're taken
For all time
With a kiss you will awaken
And you'll be mine
Cover up your eyes so you don't see
If you let me go I'm running fast
One two three count one two three
We could watch the black birds cross the skies
We could count the leaves left on the trees
We could count the teardrops in our eyes
One two three yeah one two three
One two three yeah one two three
Now you know now you know
How I feel and I won't back down
Prick your finger on a spinning wheel
But don't make a sound
Drop of blood and now you're taken
For all time
With a kiss you will awaken
And you'll be mine you'll be mine you'll be mine
I could always stay and work it out
Wondering if you still wanted me
But there are so many things to doubt
One two three count one two three
Think that for a moment you were mine
I know that you saw what we could be
But then you went and changed your mind
One two three yeah one two three
One two three yeah one two three
Now you know now you know
How I feel and I won't back down
Prick your finger on a spinning wheel
But don't make a sound
Drop of blood and now you're taken
For all time
With a kiss you will awaken
And you'll be mine

Soooo Mellow and pretty to listen to.....I'm getting a Fleetwood Macish vibe of this song....and i adore that band....I love their harmonies....They blend so well together <33
On a Cheesy note....This song makes me want to twirl around in the sunshine wearing a gypsy dress with my hair braided....Welcome to the 70's LOL
'We could bring a blanket for the grass Cover up your eyes so you don't see If you let me go Im running fast Oh one two three count one two three We could watch the black birds cross the skies We could count the leaves left on the trees We could count the teardrops in our eyes Oh one two three yeah one two three One two three yeah one two three Now you know now you know How I feel and I wont back down'
Passing the time lazily, content in your love....but the girl is the more agressive one....the guy seems to be more hesistant.
'Prick your finger on a spinning wheel But dont make a sound Drop out blood and now youre taking For all time With a kiss you will awaken And youll be mine youll be mine youll be mine'
It's very surreal and 'fairy tale-ish'.....'Pricking your finger on a spinning wheel' reminds me of Rumpelstiltskin.....'Waking someone with a kiss' like 'sleeping beauty'....I think the girl wants to save him in the way you wanna 'be and do anything' for your lover when you're infatuated.....She wants him to 'wake' up to their LOVE.
'I do always stay and work it out Wondering if you still wanted me But there are so many things to doubt Oh one two three count one two three Think that for a moment you are mine I know that you saw what we could be But than youll win and change your mind Oh one two three yeah one two three One two three yeah one two three Now you know now you know How I feel and I wont back down'
She wants him, and is pursuing him, but is afraid he doesn't feel the same way....She's insecure....He's not sure.....Maybe not falling as fast as she has.
yeah....so....i think the song is about a girl who is 'infatuated' with a guy and wants him to be hers....I get the feeling he's resisting her cause, he's maybe not comfortable with expressing himself the way she is....The 'fairytale' tone to the song i think is because she's madly in love......and when you're in love the way she is...you kinda get all 'sappy' and 'poetic' and turn into a Disney character
It's a beautiful song <33
