It's Not Like

Sharon Van Etten

Continues after the ad

Take both my feet
Tie them
Throw me over
Will I still float?
Will my heart sink?
Why have I held on so long?
I still don't know
And it's not like I have anyone to show
Or, do I want to?

These arms, this heart, these eyes
Have seen almost everything
But not you, but not you
But I want to

Continues after the ad

Take both my hands
Tie them behind my back
To keep me from holding, from holding, from holding
But that's so unlike myself
And it's not like I have anyone to hold
Or, do I want to?

These eyes, this heart, these arms
Have held almost anything
But not you, but not you
But I want to
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Why do I need to love someone?
It's like I was born not out of legs
But I was born of arms
And it's not like I have anyone to love
Do I want to?

These eyes, these arms, this heart
Has loved almost everything
But not you, but not you
But I want to
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
