Undressed - Lyrics by Lloyd Cole


Lyrics

You look so good when you're depressed
Better even in your current state of undress
Tears caressing me like rain
And i'm not even thinking, i feel fine in your pain
The coolest thing i ever saw
You were sitting there smoking my cigarettes
You were naked on the bare stone floor
You looked at me to say don't guess
I was only watching, yes i love you more undressed
Is it really such a sin?
Should i feel some kind of shame?
Will i truly go to hell?
Oh you never lock the bathroom door
Should i be embarrassed when i've seen a hundred times before
How do married couples cope
Should i say excuse me darling, i don't know
We could disconnect the telephone
Just sit around and mess around
And tell your ma we went to rome, tennessee
And i'm not even drinking, i feel fine, it's scary
Is it really such a sin?
Should i feel some kind of shame?
Will i truly go to hell?
Oh well
The coolest thing i ever saw
You were sitting there smoking my cigarettes
You were naked on the bare stone floor
You looked at me to say don't guess
I was only watching, is it bad that i should love you best
Undressed
