"Couldn't Cause Me Harm"


Ooh, yeah, you know
You couldn't cause me any harm
Although, at times, I may get startled
I'm not alarmed
I can see your eyes
I know when they're telling me untruths
I can feel the heart
Especially when it's on the roof
Of my mouth
There's no right or wrong
This isn't a test
And I won't lose my experience
I won't try
To put it aside
But it's alright
You know that it's alright
's alright
It's gonna be alright

It's gonna be alright

And if I told you
Would you never know to guess?
Sure, what's the point
When little often means so much less
I can see for miles
I know when you're telling me untruths
I can feel my heart
Especially now. It's on the roof
Of my mouth
There's no right or wrong
This isn't a gesture
I don't use my experience
I don't try
To let it go by
But it's alright
You know that it's alright
It's alright
It's gonna be alright
