Album: ...Half-Told Bedtime Stories
You're an island
But girl, oh haven't you heard?
That while you're smilin'
You're miles away with no life to preserve
Me and John Donne believe
Every man is a piece
And no man, no man
And that's what I've been saying
That's what I've been saying
You should listen to me
Sweet Nicole
She signed her letter
"A broken soul,
Fourteen years old"
Sweet Nicole
Someday you'll need love
But you say
You don't believe enough
I'm an old soul
My body's unbecoming of me
My aim, to control
The things that do or do not happen to me
I hold onto their grief
A failed love entropy
I think it makes them look weak
Or maybe that's the cynic in me
Sweet Nicole
She signed her letter
"A broken soul,
Fourteen years old"
Sweet Nicole
Someday you'll need love
But you say
You don't believe enough
She'll bend and wait
She'll bend and wait, wait, wait, wait
Sweet Nicole
She signed her letter
A broken soul
Fourteen years old
Sweet Nicole
Someday you'll need love
But you say
You don't believe enough
Someday you'll need love
I need love
But you say
You don't believe enough
She'll bend and wait
She'll bend and wait, wait, wait, wait, wait
She'll bend and then
She'll bend and wait, wait, wait
