I'm the One Who Wants to Be With You - Field Music

I feel some sympathy for you

Recollecting when I didn’t have the words to use

Fumbling with a paucity of tools

Speaking by numbers 'cause there’s nothing else there to choose

So there you are

Singing, «I'm the one who wants to be with you»

As if the feelings that you really have will come on through

I won’t underestimate the lack of a shorthand

When the brain to the mouth just stops

It’s hard enough when you’re young

Navigating blind 'til the penny drops

And you’re left there…

Singing, «I'm the one who wants to be with you»

As if the feelings that you really have will come on through

I see you in your room

Suddenly conscious of

All the things you’ll disown
