James Iha


Lovers are foreign creatures / 
I heard of this thing they do called kiss / 
It cures the ills of the modern age and / 
Gives you a place in the universe / 
Come on now, come on' / 
Calm down / 
Come on now, come on' / 
Calm down / 
Can't help but stare / 
In cold confusion / 
Its not familiar but its happened before / 
Past life, childhood residence / 
A flash of actors, faint remembrance. / 
Come on now, come on' / 
Calm down / 
Come on now, come on' / 
Calm down / 
I don't remember birthdays / 
Or what day it is of the week / 
I don't remember waiting in line / 
Wasting my time, or having a good time / 
I don't remember much, unless / 
I have a witness to my crimes / 
I don't remember birthdays /
Except yours and mine, yours and mine / 
Lovers are foreign creatures / 
Yeah, I used to be one myself / 
It's the cure that kills, (un) til' you kill the cure / 
You give it your all but it doesn't endure / 
Come on now, come on' / 
Calm down / 
Come on now, come on' / 
Calm down / 
I miss kissing you, 
I miss kissing you, 
I miss kissing. / 
I miss kissing you, I miss kissing you, I miss kissing. / 
And I don` t remember birthdays / 
Or what day it is of the week / 
I don` t remember waiting in line / 
Wasting my time, or having a good time / 
I don` t remember much, unless / 
I have a witness to my crimes / 
I don` t remember birthdays / 
Except yours and mine, yours and mine
