3 Weeks Lyrics by Moontype

Bodies of Water

2021

[Verse 1]
In the quiet place where there is love and grace
I don't care that you have a girlfriend
That we almost share a face
I want you to be happy
I want you to be happy
I love and I love you even though I've only known you for three weeks

Now the tides have turned and I'm the young one and my face is fresh and open
And I'm holding onto what is still unbroken
And you tell me you quit smoking
And I say your name out loud
Cause I'm happy for you also cause I like the way your name feels in my mouth
My mouth

[Chorus]
I want to tell you that I love you but it's not thе time
I wear velvеt so you'll touch me on the back tonight
I don't mean to throw my feelings in your open eyes
Open eyes
Full of light

[Interlude]
Sometimes I look right at you but there's no reason so I shift my gaze to the side
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

[Verse 2]
And we are sitting at the desk and you are mixing all the bands
And I'm watching as your hands move the faders up and down
And I am changing all the lights onstage, turning them to darkness so I wallow in my angst
Wallow in my rage
And you remind me that my fingernails are painted
I am trying to have fun
I am trying to get paid but there is something in you showing me
That days come after days
There is no end, only ocean
There is ocean and I have to ride the wave
The wave

[Chorus]
I want to tell you that I love you but it's not the time
I wear velvet so you'll touch me on the back tonight
I don't mean to throw my feelings in your open eyes

[Bridge]
I threw my bag into the bed of your truck as you open the door
You shift the gears until we're here, I try to tell you that you matter more
We hug goodbye I take my bike out and I look back through the window
I turn around to walk away and you are driving towards your pillow

[Chorus]
I want to tell you that I love you but it's not the time
I want to tell you that I love you but it's not the time
I want to tell you that I love you but it's not the time
