Owls Talons Clenching My Heart

Let’s get one thing straight, I know I shouldn’t like you,
I know it’s too late.
Some may say that I don’t even know you, but what good would it do
If I already knew all about you?
You’ve got your guy, and I’ve got my terrible way of dealing with things,
How the hell do I hide these feelings?
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart,
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart.
One full year has come and gone since you sang to me in perfect birdsong.
This boat ebbs and flows, I’ll come and I’ll go, quite literally,
Girl, I’m talking to you literally.
And I feel bad, 'cause you’ll be mad and that’ll make you sad,
No, I don’t wanna make you sad.
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart,
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart.
Owls talons clench my heart, me and you Sylvia,
God knows I’m with ya.
We are young and love knows no rules,
Everything I say or do to or for you makes me look the fool.
And this is but a quiet ode to you.
Boy, you’ll have to make do,
Stay polite, be kind 'cause this can’t come true.
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart,
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart,
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart,
No, I don’t wanna fool around with your heart.
