Promised you would love me more than any other man
the time you said it first, and we made love in your bed
you’re gonna have to trust me on it, sometimes you forget
’cause I didn’t take it down
no, I didn’t take it down.
Years now, I’m agonizing over the painting
you made to keep me company in my lonely apartment
I moved it to a different wall I don’t always have to see,
but I didn’t take it down.
no, I didn’t take it down.
Oh, so many things
floating in the air
my heart is your balloon,
but my head so heavy, dear.
You call me your shelter, but I have no home
I ask for so little. You won’t ask for more.
My one and only comfort when it comes to either/or
is I didn’t take it down
no, I didn’t take it down.
Oh, so many things
floating in the air
my heart is your balloon,
but my head so heavy, dear.
My head so heavy, dear.
And I cannot seem to put it down.
I cannot seem to put it down.
