Don’t fall in love with me yet
We only recently met
Sure, I’m in love with you, but
You might decide I’m a nut
Give me a week or two to
Go absolutely cuckoo
Then, when you see your error
Then you can flee in terror
Like everybody else does
I only tell you this cos
I’m easy to get rid of
But not if we fall in love
Know now that I’m on the make
And if you make a mistake
My heart will certainly break
I’ll have to jump in a lake
Then all my friends will blame you
There’s no telling what they’ll do
It’s only fair to tell you
I’m absolutely cuckoo

If you knew how I long
for you now that you’re gone
You’d grow wings and fly
Home to me
Home tonight
And in the morning sun
Let’s pretend we’re bunny rabbits
Let’s do it all day long
Let Abbots, Babbitts and Cabots
Say Mother Nature’s wrong
And when we’ve had a couple of beers
We’ll put on bunny suits
I long to nibble your ears
And do as bunnies do
Let’s pretend we’re bunny rabbits
Let’s do it all day long
Rapidly becoming rabid
Singing little rabbit songs
I can keep it up all night
I can keep it up all day
Let’s pretend we’re bunny rabbits
Until we pass away
Let’s pretend we’re bunny rabbits
Until we pass away

I tried hard to keep you
I needn’t have tried
It seems you decided
When did you decide?
So, this is the last time
I cry in the dawn
It seems you were always
Always already gone
You never were happy
You had to be free
You took all the freedom
You needed from me
Then you and your freedom
Flew thither and yon
You’re free to be always
Always already gone
I couldn’t have dreamed you
But I might as well
You leave me with only
A story to tell
But at the beginning
Our story is done
Because you were always
Always already gone
Always already gone

In the middle of the night, with a sickening sound
This little boat ran aground.
The mast is twisted, the hull is breached.
One high tide and it’ll be beached.
If I could walk, I’d walk away.
But I haven’t slept since yesterday.
The ink is sinking, the page is blurred
And I can’t read a single word.
But know that I love you.
Know that I wrote my last words to you
From a sinking boat.
