Oh wonderful one why are you like that? Oh wonderful one why are you like that?

Glow in the darkness that how we do it Glow in the darkness that how we do it

Just like the stars upon your ceiling that, put you to sleep afterrrrr.

Oh wonderful one why are you like that? Oh wonderful one why are you like that?

Glow in the darkness that how we do it Glow in the darkness that how we do it

Just like the stars up on your ceiling bed, put you to sleep after.

Just like the stars up on your ceiling bed, put you to sleep afterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Put you to sleep afterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Put you to sleep after

I'm surrounded in darkness of the room in the room in your room

where your head is bandaged from the top [echoes] top top top clinging with your feet clinging with your tears fears

We are apart but not again, and again again and again

Nothing makes us So put away your jewels, now I'll be at your drowning at your libation [sung as if to mean LIE -bation] you cannnnnn

and in the end they ask you for....your reply don't you tell them....what you found out this time

A guy is confiding in to his best childhood friend/former girlfriend w/benefits He's getting married and wants her approval/opinion She can't tell him how she really feels hence the lines "at your drowning" "at your libation" referring to the expected drunkenness to follow the after wedding ceremony

She knows something about her but can't tell him cause he wouldn't believe her that is what the last verse is about She knows everyone would think she was just being a past jealous/jilted lover It is sung from this place of sadness....
