Barely (If At All) The Verve Pipe

When my love complained, every word
A breath on my last dandelion
And so lovers will leave and their tears
Souvenirs for the very first time

I searched the world reluctant
To find a lover enthusiastic
Speak to me barely, if at all
If at all

When I was a boy, funny things
Water wings kept you confident
A belly of wine, similar
To keep yourself indifferent

I scraped the bargain basement
Bought a lover less than fantastic
Spoke to me barely, if at all

Taste perfume that burns my throat
And I am free of envelope
Squeeze an instant out of me

And she placed a hand between our lips
How could anything be so precious?
She kissed me barely, if at all
