Quirky, but sweet

When you're quiet, but your eyes

Are saying all I need to know

I want to burrow like a sparrow

Dodging alley cats and whiskers

Why do we talk in whispers?

Is it painful hearing voices ring

So early in the morning?

I've been waiting for the day

When I can throw away these numbers

That line my dresser drawers and cupboards

Start me over

Life seems so much slower

With your toothbrush by the mirror

Can I make it any clearer?

And I just might say it tonight

I just might say it tonight

I just might tell you tonight

That I love you

And you should stay all my life

They'll tell you that you'll maybe make it

If your just cut your clothes and change your hair

But I won't fuss and moan

About what you wear

I feel so much better

When I read your dirty letters

Just wear your sweaters in the winter

'Cause I wouldn't want you to get cold

I hope that we're together when we're old

I would have sold all my possessions

Never took piano lessons

But baby you're a grand

And I will learn to play the good notes

And tune you up the best I can

And I just might say it tonight

I just might say it tonight

I just might tell you tonight

That I love you

And you should stay all my life

"Might Tell You Tonight" by The Scissor Sisters, Album: Ta-Dah

This song's lyrics are a bit quirky, but the message is sweet and the tune has a lovely ramble to it. It reminds me that love is just that..quirky, sweet and not always sensible, but has a good feeling to it.
