I love this song too, but can I suggest a correction to the lyrics posted above. To me, it sounds like:
"It's a lie, A kiss with opened eyes
And she's not breathing back
Anything but bother me
(It takes my pain away)
Nevermind, these are horrid times
Oh, oh, oh
I can't let it bother me"
should read:
"...Nevermind, these are hurried times
Oh, oh, oh
I can't let it bother me"
It's like the speed, busyness and complexity of the narrator's life are being used as an excuse, and they are temporarily dismissing their fears... Not letting it bother them. I'd welcome anyone else's thoughts?
