lyrics

Eliot makes me take the long way home
Eliot tears the seam before its sewn
Eliot won't understand why I wanna be alone
Eliot doesn't like to lie to me
Eliot has a mind to let things be
Eliot won't talk about what he doesn't think I see

My most gentle lover
My cruelest love
Sweet as summer
Colder as night falls
I can't let him be with his somebody cause I'll be on my own
And Eliot is all I've known

I'll regret all the times I bet on him
Things I said just so he would let me in
Needing but not wanting to know where he'd been
I'll forget what I remembered good and wrong
Not again will weeds around me overgrow
Eliot's not proud to stay but he won't let me go

My most gentle lover
My cruelest love
Sweet as summer
Colder as night falls
I can't let him be with his somebody cause I'll be on my own
And Eliot, Eliot

Eliot is tangled blankets in my bed
Eliot is waking up at half past ten
Eliot is playing keys along my skin
Eliot is kissing me below my chin

Eliot is breaking more than promises
Eliot is, Eliot is

Eliot makes me take the long way home
Eliot feels too far to call my own
Eliot
Eliot is all I've known
