I've Been Sloppy Losing You

I've been sloppy losing you But trust me I never wanted to let you go But darling I broke Those violin strings a long time ago. I've turned off the air conditioner Because I didn't like the airflow It reminded me of how your heart Would beat like a kettle drum Slow then fast and hard. I've been sloppy losing you But trust me I never wanted to let you go Let me confess to you You were nearly all right I nearly made you my knight I nearly drowned for you Like Tennyson's lady of shallot But now you've had your lot. I've turned off the air conditioner Because I didn't like the airflow It reminded me of how your heart Would beat like a kettle drum Slow then fast and hard. I've been sloppy losing you But trust me I never wanted to let you go But darling I broke Those violin strings a long time ago.
