Pico Vs. Island Trees – Saying The Opposite lyrics

So maybe I'll call you up,
Or would that ruin everything?
Cos' you're so perfect now,
Unless there's something I've been missing.
And even if there was,
Maybe we could just pretend.
I could overlook those things.
And disregard the consequence.

But If I slip it in,
Would you let me?
Can I take you in my arms
And fly away?
Knowing just what I've wanted to say.
But saying the opposite.

So I fumble around for a bit.
And look at my toes for the answers to questions.
Don't get me wrong,
I'm just so overcome by my lack of perfection.
I've practiced this in my dreams,
It's much harder than I had expected.
So I'll throw this out, despite all my doubts.
So misguided yet so directed.

If I slip it in,
Will you let me?
Can I take you in my arms
And fly away?
Knowing just what I've wanted to say

But saying the opposite
Oh yeah, ahh

Well when I fall beyond the flowers and trees
Your rivers flowing to my seas
Love you bring me down to my knees
And I'm gonna set it
And I don't have to turn around
I recognize you by the sound
Pick me up while I'm going down
And I won't regret it

If I slip it in,
Will you let me?
Can I take you in my arms
And fly away.
Figured out what I've wanted to say,
I love you
