Honey Don't Think
Grant Lee Buffalo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's the luck of the draw
How you wound up with me
You don't know how at all
But I beg you to stay
Crawl around on this earth
While the world's still small

Honey don't think
About it too long now
Honey don't think
You're liable to figure me out

Something wrong in my stars
Could you look at my chart
Help me healing these scars
Could you learn to read minds
In the case of mine
Do you read in the dark

Honey don't think
About it too long now
Honey don't think
You're liable to figure me out
You don't wanna figure me out
You don't wanna figure me out
Don't wanna lose

Honey don't think
About it too long now
Honey don't think
You're liable to figure me out

Honey don't think
About it too long now (about it too long now)
Honey don't think
You're liable to figure me out





Honey don't think
About it too long
