Jewel - Studies In Love #12

Lyrics :
The doorway frames you
a picture perfect silhouette,
blue sky of regret
enough to hang you
Your legs seem to tremble
At least I imagine that they do
Then again, it's probably easy for you

Please, don't open your mouth, my dear
I can read all the signs
I can take it from here
There's no need to explain,
It's perfectly clear

Yellow wallpaper peals
a strange halo around your head
It's funny how I notice
These stupid things instead
You say something awkward
But I wish that you wouldn't
A whole life of You wish you could's
but just couldn'ts

Please, don't open your mouth, my dear
I can read all the signs
I can take it from here
There's no need to explain,
It's perfectly clear

I try not to think to much
it only just makes me mad
I spent half my life loving you
Think of all the love that I could've had

Five years worth of kisses
Are packed in your bags
This tiny moment fits
All the big things we ever had
And I can't quite pinpoint
When it left or what for
Love always steps lightly
Away from the door

Please, don't open your mouth, my dear
I can read all the signs,
I can take it from here
There's no need to explain,
No, there's no need to explain,
It's perfectly clear

[herewhengone]

this sounds like a re-worked version of her song "summer home in your arms". I like the other better. I wish she wouldn't second guess herself.

[remase73]

I am not sure, but somehow I have a feeling that  Summer Home in Your Arms was written after this one. But I love summer home as a song, then again, I love this song too!! :D

[lmBetter]

this is called 'perfectly clear'

[remase73]

Yeah, nowadays it is ..

[marianrocksteady]

oh. no. summer home is newer than this one. this is the first version of the actual song called Perfectly clear. the one that gave name to the album with the same name.

[itchyorion]

where'd you get these? Were you an EDA??? I had all these songs on tapes when I was an EDA. Unfortunately I lost them all in a tragic car accident....god these songs bring back sooooo many memories. It's been over 10 years since i've heard these

[Shadows921]

PERFECTLY CLEAR = NEW ALBUM TITLE!!!! 1st single will be 'Stronger Woman' & will be released on 1/23/07.

[herewhengone]

yeah.. i think you're right. i worked them both out on the guitar and they're actually quite different. they're both beautiful.
