I've been waiting
Wading it through
Alone in my room
So I can get up
And get to you
You
I've been in reeling in
Close contact
And someday I'll be studying you
A foreign language
Just laying naked
Next to you
You
But I can't say it yet
So I'll have to paint it to be near you
You
Cause I'm underwater still
Barely holding together still
Give it a few more years and I swear I'll be out of here
I'll sign up for Rosetta Stone
Just to make you feel at home
So you can talk to me
And say you're comfortable
I've been thinking
'Bout when I was young
Backtracking to where it all begun
Going through my words
One by one
And making room for your mother tongue
A foreign language
'Cause waking up next to you
You
But I can't say it yet
So I'll have to paint it to be near you
Cause I'm underwater still
Barely holding together still
But give it a few more years
And I swear I'll be out of here
I'll sign up for Rosetta Stone
Just to make you feel at home
So you can talk to me
And say you're comfortable
