"Not Too Soon"
(written by Tanya Donelly)

Demo Version:
She
Color blind
Frantic eyes
Her
Hallway
Aching
She'll never ask him
She knows what he could say
He's just a walker,
And he'll never stop walking away
It's not too soon, he said
You know it's not too soon at all
You might as well be dead
He said, if you're afraid to fall
You missed the boat
You missed the boat (save it)
You missed the boat (save it)
????
I won't, I won't, I won't, I can't
I'm not in love, I couldn't be
I couldn't look you in the face
And tell you that you turn me on
You make my stomach turn
I'm not in love, I'm not as happy...
The last time I saw you,
You were standing in the dark
And with a freezing face
I watched him fall apart
I didn't move him
I knew what he could say
I just started walking
And I'll never stop walking away
It's not too soon, he said
You know it's not too soon at all
You might as well be dead
He said, if you're afraid to fall
I won't, I won't, I can't, no
I'm not in love, I couldn't be
I couldn't look you in the face
And tell you that you turn me on
You make my stomach turn
I'm not in love, no...
I'm not that kind of girl.

Album Version:
She
Color blind
Tired eyes
Her
Hallway
Aching
She'll never move him
Likes it that way
He's just a walker,
And he'll never stop walking away
It's not too soon, he said
You know it's not too soon at all
And you might as well be dead
He said, if you're afraid to fall
I said: I know her...
She said, mmm, aah
Why do you stare so hard?
Wrapped up like a doll
In bad dreams and broken arms
Make these old bones shiver
It's not too soon, he said
You know it's not too soon at all
And you might as well be dead
He said, if you're afraid to fall
I said: I know her...
The last time I saw you,
You were standing in the dark
And with a freezing face, I watched you fall apart
It's not too soon, he said
It's not too soon at all
And you might as well be dead
He said, if you're afraid to fall
I said:
Done your time, been in your place
I couldn't look you in the face
And tell you that it turned me on
It makes my stomach turn
I know, I know her...
