The Weight

Darling, sit alone in your room

Light the candles

And breathe in the fumes

Watch the morning arrive through your beautiful eyes and stay true

I know I'm onto something with you

Oh, darling

Don't you dare move

'Cause I'm taken

By the way that you look

And although I have tried to get you out my mind, I can't do

I know I'm onto something with you

Now I'm not holding your hand

No, I'm not there when I say that I am

But I'm always pulling the weight off your shoulders

She thinks I don't understand

No, she thinks I'm not much of a man

And I've tried to tell her I am in the end

I know I'm onto something with you

Now I'm not holding your hand

No, I'm not there when I say that I am

But I'm always pulling the weight off your shoulders

I don't even know why

Don't even know why

I don't even know why this time

And I'm not holding your hand

No, I'm not there when I say that I am

But I'm always pulling the weight off your shoulders
