Lyrics Fiona Apple

Fiona Apple

To Your Love

Here's another speech you wish I'd swallow

Another cue for you to fold your ears

Another train of thought too hard to follow

Chugging along to the song that belongs to

The shifting of gears

Please forgive me for my distance

The pain is the evident in my existence

Please forgive me for my distance

The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love, to your love, to your love

I would've warned you, but really, what's the point?

Caution could but rarely ever helps

Don't be down when my demeanor tends to disappoint

It's hard enough even trying to be civil to myself

Please forgive me for my distance

The pain is evident in my existence

Please forgive me for my distance

The shame is manifest in my resistance

to your love love, to your love, to your love

My derring-do allows me to dance the rigadoon

Around you

But by the time I'm close to you, I lose

My desideratum and now you, so

Now you have it, so baby tell me what's the word?

Am I your gal, or should I get out of town?

I just need to be reassured

Do you just deal it out, or can you deal with

What I lay down?

Please forgive me, for my distance

The pain is evident in my existence

Please forgive me for my distance

The shame is manifest in my resistance

To your love, to your love, to your love
