You pull me in
A bit too close for comfort
My body doesn't know you
But my mind pretends it does
And we make jokes about the movie
I feed you my pad Thai
But in my heart you're still a stranger
I don't want to spend the night

Sunday morning and my head hurts from that wine
You surround me with affection that feels mostly like a lie
But I'll buy it like a knockoff that I know will wear with time
The label's fake but it took effort to sew on
So isn't that fine?

Can we craft love like a sculpture
Make it sturdy and reliable?
Can we fold love like an airplane
Throw it further than we know how to go?
Can we build love like a birdhouse
Small and safe and so predictable?
Is it love that we are after
Or just something we can control?

3 weeks of dinner and we're running out of lines
Cuddling isn't very natural but it's nice to be entwined
You know I like sharing entrees
I know you're always on time
We've got a decent thing here going if the moments weren't so dry

But let's focus on the positive
Like your manners are nice
And an arm feels good around me
And I think that you like mine
Let us fill what we need filling
There's no need to be surprised
You can't find it all in one
Isn't it selfish to even try?

Cause if we craft love like a sculpture
Make it sturdy and reliable
If we fold love like an airplane
Throw it further than we know how to go
If we build love like a birdhouse
Small and safe and so predictable
Is it love that we are after
Or just something we can control?

But if we craft love like a sculpture
Make it sturdy and reliable
If we fold love like an airplane
Throw it further than we know how to go
If we build love like a birdhouse
Small and safe and so predictable
Is it love that we are after
Or just something we can control

Cause if we throw it all together
If we keep it nice and close
If you listen to my problems
And I giggle at your jokes

If we make it nice and pretty
Though it's hollow like a ghost
Will it be love?
Or close enough?
