"I Want To Sing" lyrics - REGINA SPEKTOR

[Chorus:]
I want to sing to you my love
My only love and happiness
Don't be so blue so blue my love
Take off your shoes take off my dress
I want to sing to you my love
My only love and happiness
Don't be so blue, so blue my love
This too shall pass
This too shall pass

But tell me, what have I done to deserve you?
Must have done something
'Cause that's how it works
Must have been kind to kittens and birds
In a previous life
Must have thought happy thoughts
Because there, you were there right beside me
Then somehow inside me
While inside myself
Books on the shelf
Thoughts on the shelf
Hands to myself
I should definitely keep my hands to myself

Love is a dangerous pastime
Caught between madness and gladness of flight
Nothing is wrong and nothing is right
Falling asleep in your arms every night
But Love's such a strange situation
Full of frustration and anger and fear
Everything's tears
Nobody hears
Nobody's here, and nobody hears

[Chorus]
