Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Am I made of paper

Cause I tear so easily

Am I made of vapor

Because I disappear

Do I have to have a reason

For anything I feel

Just be glad I'm real

Glad I'm real

Am I real

Are you made of lead paint

A bulletproof Picasso

All the virgin saints

Put you here to care for me

I don't need a reason

For anything I feel

Just be glad I say what I mean

And mean what I say to you

We don't need a reason

For anything we feel

We don't need a reason

Picasso's at the wheel

So roll that top down, hell with this town

Leave our bags behind

We don't need a reason

Cause I got you, and you got me tonight

(Cause I got you, and you got me tonight)

Did you ever see the waves break

Into a million pieces

Or stay awake

With someone who was dying

You don't need to tell me

Anything at all

I'm just glad you're here

Glad you're real

Are you real

Am I made of timber

Cause I'm on fire

Will you remember

Tonight for very long

You don't need to sell me

On anything at all

Just say what you mean

And mean what you say to me

We don't need a reason

For anything we feel

We don't need a reason

Picasso's at the wheel

So roll that top down, hell with this town

Leave our bags behind

We don't need a reason

Cause I got you, and you got me tonight

Amber waves of grain

Fly by highway lanes

Waited for this change

Seems like my entire life

If only the good die young

We'll outlast everyone

For some of the things we've done

And we've just begun

We don't need a reason

For anything we feel

We don't need a reason

Picasso's at the wheel

So roll that top down, hell with this town

Leave our bags behind

We don't need a reason

Cause I got you, and you got me tonight

Woah-oh oh

Oh-oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh

You got me tonight

You got me tonight

You got me

Tonight
