Reaching for sour grapes
Reaching for sour grapes
If I can't taste and get my fill
Then no one will
If I can't touch, if I can't touch you
I don't know what to do

Feels like we're both in love
Wedding bells ring above
And I need love more than anyone
I'm the prodigal son
And I need love, but the more I see love
The more I need love

[Chorus]
You reach me unequipped
For the tenderness you bring
You cannot leave tonight
Just to give your disguises away

All your words of wanting
Are somewhere in love's dream
A powerful tool
A pleasant smile, an excuse for love

Looked in the mirror today
Then I got scared away
Oh I need love
No affection for my reflection
Oh I need love
Cause I can't guilt it, never forgive myself

[Chorus]
You reach me unequipped
For the tenderness you bring
It tastes like sour grapes
And it feels like a terrible waste

I'll let you go
Before you know
Before you know I was happy on my own
So when in doubt
Don't burn 'em out
There's some things you can live without
