Reservations Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How can I convince you, it's me I don't like
And not be so indifferent to the look in your eyes
When I've always been distant
And I've always told lies for love


[Verse 2]
I'm bound by these choices, so hard to make
I'm bound by the feeling, so easy to fake
None of this is real enough to take me from you

[Chorus]
Oh, I've got reservations
About so many things
But not about you


[Verse 3]
I know this isn't what you were wanting me to say
How can I get closer and be further away
From the truth that proves it's beautiful to lie

[Chorus]
Oh, I've got reservations
About so many things
But not about you
[Chorus]
Oh, I've got reservations
About so many things
But not about you

[Outro]
Not about you
Not about you
Not about you
It's not about you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Reservations ends the album on a completely bittersweet note, in an unconventional outro consisting of psychedelic drones and ambience that come together like a dirge after the main song ends.
