So Complicated
Noisettes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why am I weary and why does my head feel so light?
Should I tear up the letters signed signed from my black knight who thrills me?
If love doesn't kill me I'll be lonely as a king with everything

Wild as a flower, true love carries on anywhere
Out of the concrete or from window ledges
Just tell them we could be building something out of our despair
Don't make this so complicated
So complicated
I did not mean to keep you waiting
But I still want your love
I miss your touch

I squandered my daydreams
Don't tell me, I already know
Something so beautiful and chilled to the bone
I could have killed him
I'd tell the children
"Send your heart out for repair"

Don't make this so complicated
So complicated
I did not mean to keep you waiting
But I still want your love
I miss your touch

Don't make this so complicated
It's getting so complicated
I didn't mean to frustrate you
But I still want your love
Guess I miss your touch

Don't make it so complicated
'Cause it's getting so complicated
I did not mean to frustrate you
But I still want your love
I miss your touch

It's getting so complicated
So complicated
Suddenly you and me




I still want your love
That special touch
