oh, stella, couldn't you tell?
of course I meant well but ya gotta remember
I'm crazy as hell
and the grace from which
I've fallen
Wasn't stolen, no, I gave it all way
And I felt some return the first
time I heard you say
"I love you"
breaking the robot heart
letting go of the machine
breaking the robot heart
and waking up in a dream
oh, stella, you know I'm a mess
and like a blind man improvising at chess
I went for red lipstick and a black leather dress
like that would be impressive
like that would be what helped you run away
and, it still still kills me when I hear you say
"I love you"
breaking the robot heart
letting go of the machine
breaking the robot heart
and waking up in a dream
I'll always be right where you want me
never even a step from yr need
and never forget that I want you
and across the distance I will grieve
for that smallest sense of wonder
I let myself believe
But thanks to you and only you
I do believe
I'm closing in on
bigger and better things
but bigger than what?
and better than who?
nothing is bigger than what you gave me
and nobody's better than you
breaking the robot heart
letting go of the machine
breaking the robot heart
and waking up in a dream
where i love you
yes, i love you
(from the forthcoming CD "breaking the robot heart")
