the jane austen argument - made your mark lyrics
i tried to write you a tango
but all we could do was stumble
and i wanted to whisper in your ear
but all that came out was a jumble of mumbles
i don’t know you wanted to hear
and i don’t know if this is a love song
but you have made your mark
you have made your mark
we met each other’s matches
then we set the house on fire
and our faces glowed in the flame light
so hold out, hold out, hold out your palm
and offer it to me, offer it to me
and give me, give me, give me something real
so real that i can hardly breathe
the green woman, she said
“you know this can’t last,
so stick your tongue out at life
and just get what you can, what you can.
while you can.
and you can.”
we sharpened our claws on each other
didn’t leave a scratch
no we didn’t leave a scratch.
but you tap, tap, tapped my body’s hollows
to the count of three (one, two)
to the count of three
(one, two, three)
and the oak men said to me
“look inside yourself
and you’ll find what you need.
what you need.”
(while you need)
and i need…
and i’m not sure if this is a love song
but you have made your mark
you have made your mark
we met each other’s matches
the we set the house on fire
and our faces glowed, our faces glowed
and i can’t if this is a love song
but you have made your mark
you have made your mark
we met each other’s matches
then we set the house on fire
how our faces glowed in the flame light
