Lyrics

Scary

[Verse 1] He means tomorrow but says, "In a bit," And doesn't show up at all He sets his watch to a comet's orbit And remembers to forget to call [Chorus] No courage for love, too scared to be happy No courage for love, too scared to be happy [Post-Chorus] I do, do I do, do [Verse 2] "Your place or mine?" means "Heaven or Hell?" Two addresses somewhat apart His home's dark and spiky, hers clear as a bell It's over before they can start [Chorus] No courage for love, too scared to be happy No courage for love, too scared to be happy [Post-Chorus] I do, don't I do, don't [Refrain] And tomorrow passed them by And tomorrow passed them by And tomorrow passed them by And tomorrow passed them by [Outro] La-la-la-la-la la-la... La-la-la-la-la la-la... La-la-la-la-la la-la... La-la-la-la-la la-la!
