Damien Rice
Delicate

We might kiss when we are alone
When nobody's watching
We might take it home
We might make out when nobody's there
It's not that we're scared
It's just that it's delicate

So why'd you fill my sorrows
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place you've known?
And why'd you sing 'Hallelujah'
If it means nothing to you
Why'd you sing with me at all?

We might live like never before
When there's nothing to give
Well, how can we ask for more
We might make love
In some sacred place
The look on your face is delicate

So why'd you fill my sorrow
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place that you've known?
And why'd you sing 'Hallelujah'
If it means nothing to you
Why'd you sing with me at all?

And why'd you fill my sorrows
With the words you've borrowed
From the only place that you've known?
Now why'd you sing 'Hallelujah'
If it means nothing to you
Why'd you sing with me at all?
