tell me about yourself

i’m a doctor back in china, doing research now in america
i wanted to be an artist but my parents were not sure

girl: i like to sing along to music, in china i danced on stage
boy: she is lovely, the shape of her arm

girl: i try to cook beyond just chinese food, the culture here is different
boy: she speaks so softly, she makes me feel calm

girl: my roommate leaves things everywhere, she spreads her clothes out on the floor
boy: there’s something else about her, maybe i’m wrong

i hope when there’s a pause in things to say
i’ll get closer and she won’t move away
i hope when there’s a pause in things to say
i’ll get closer and she won’t move away

tell me more about you

me? i worked at ad agencies in manhattan, now i have my own creative shop
i like to talk about ideas, i record songs that i write and play

girl: he’s nice, he’s cute
boy: i read a lot, i like salinger, steinbeck, rand, and hemingway

girl: he’s talking fast, he is smart, he’s showing off, but i don’t mind
boy: i’ve traveled to different places, i’m planning to visit italy soon

girl: somehow, he’s very warm
boy: i like a bottle of red wine, with dinner and real conversation

i hope when there’s a pause in things to say
he’ll get closer and i won’t move away
i hope when there’s a pause in things to say
he’ll get closer and i won’t move away

girl: he’s nice, he’s cute
boy: she is lovely, the shape of her arm

girl: he’s talking fast, he is smart, he’s showing off, but i don’t mind
boy: she speaks so softly, she makes me feel calm

girl: somehow, he’s very warm
boy: there’s something else about her, maybe i’m wrong

girl: so much to say
boy: i hope when there’s a pause in things to say

i hope he gets closer

and she won’t move away

i hope when there’s a pause in things to say (i know)
i’ll get closer

that i won’t move away

girl: what kind of ad work do you do?
boy: what kind of research do you do?

so, what were you saying?

i like that you write songs

well, you sing, and you wanted to be an artist
but isn’t creativity needed for all work anyway? could be

i think you are right
