Tindersticks - Her lyrics

Scared of my shadow

Afraid of myself

Never thought I could be so shallow

Resort to playing a man

It's a thin line that I walk for her

A thin line that I walk

Between myself and what I have to do

The action and the thought

Chorus:

Oh her, her, it's her

Oh, her, her

Feel like I've been dancing

The lights have finally come on

Just waiting for my eyes adjusting

To see how ugly I've become

She asked me for no promises

I made them to myself

I've given myself no choices now

It's the only way out

(Chorus)

She tied back her hair

Wrapped the band around

Pulled off her rings

And dropped them in a jar

I'm not there, not waving my arms round

I've gotten the `flu

It's blocking my heart

To her

(Chorus)
