I agree with terroreesa, these lyrics, as well as the rest on the net, seem completely wrong to me, and totally change the meaning. Here's what I hear:
what is she covering up?
what is she lying about?
she's hesitating.
and she's using slow words, i know
but she's moving fast.
why is this happening now?
why does this happen to me
all the time?
don't give up on me
now [or just aaah]
and i won't give up on you
now
squeeze me
'til i can't breathe
and let's just lie here
in oblivion
because neither one of us can know
how long this love will last
so stay up in bed with me
stay up and play with me
all day long
don't give up on me now
now...
and i won't give up on you now
now...
i gotta wait for the baby
love me girl
nothing is wrong
what are you scared of?
squeeze me
'til i can't breathe
and let's just lie here
in oblivion
because neither one of us can know
how long this love will last
so stay up in bed with me
stay up and play with me
all day and night
don't give up on me now
now...
and i won't give up on you
now...
i gotta wait for the baby
love me girl
love me girl
~ The words are said much more clearly the second time, and I'm almost completely certain that this is right. Unless the lyrics above came directly from Yeasayer, I think they're wrong. Let me know what you think, because this changes the song completely.
sorry, i meant to keep it consistent - should be "all day long" both times, but obviously i was just copying terroresa's post and editing it so i missed that one.
