The reception's gotten fuzzy.
The delicate balance has shifted.
Put on your gloves and black pumps.
Let's pretend the fog has lifted.

    Is anyone else getting an "Eleanor Rigby" vibe from this song?

    Oh man, this song is amazing, but it's actually quite awkward to listen to...

    this is a song about how sometimes you feel so in love that you think. 'i think i'll rob some people.' they don't need those medications anyway. i have learning disabilities. hhahaahh

    agree about that line, _baldin. This song could have easily overshot, but it's actually just perfect. Love the unexpected brevity.

    john's voice cracks on the line "i will remember this kiss, so do it with your mouth open!". this one must be really painful for him to sing.

    I think the lyrics about "your body can't do what it's not meant to" and "now you say you love, pretty soon you won't" are great lines that are delivered really well. That's part of the attraction/appeal for me.
