Jack Savoretti – Touchy Situation lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'd like to find out what places she's been
What's behind her locked door
Oh better yet, know if I'm out or I'm in
If the renovator still runs the top floor
Perhaps she would say
She was a student of hope
And I'm dangling from the end
Of a disintegrating rope
But I don't wish to spark off
Of outraged imagination
I don't wish to get into any double edged conversation

[Chorus]
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh, yes
It's a touchy situation
Oh-oh-oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Someday I'll find out
What I'm now afraid to ask
And I'll discover what lies there
Beneath the door mats
Perhaps she would say
That I'm just deathly afraid
To see her make the same mistake that I made
And it might lead to
Some sweet revelation
She knows I hate
Eating this conversation

[Chorus]
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh, yes
It's a touchy situation
Oh-oh-oh yeah

[Bridge]
I said, "Are you doing well baby?"
She says, "Go ask your father."
I said, "Give me yes, no, or maybe."
She says, "Why should I bother?"
I said
She says
I said, "ohhh."
I'll ask you tomorrow
I'll ask you tomorrow

[Verse 3]
If I could only break the cold of her fears
I could
Expose the secrets to the river of her tears
Ride all of her senses
Until she's ? for all of her tears
Before she'd exercise
Those powers of manipulation

[Chorus]
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh
It's a touchy situation
Woah-oh-oh

[Outro]
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
It's a touchy situation
