Imogen Heap ~ The Moment I Said It

I first heard the British songstress Imogen Heap (formally part of Frou Frou) on SNL. It was during one of those skits where they kept repeating a small part of the song which makes you then want to go listen to the rest. "The Moment I said It" is from her second album two time Grammy nominated Speak For Yourself. I personally, love the whole album. She's an amazing songwriter with a unique soul. Besides owning the recording company Megaphonic Records, Imogen Heap wrote, produced and mixed the album. Many of her songs have been featured on television shows.

The Moment I Said It by Imogen Heap lyrics

The moment I said it..
The moment I opened my mouth..
Lead in your eyelids bulldozed the life out of me.
I know what you're thinking, but darling you're not thinking straight.
Sadly, things just happen we can't.. explain.

It's not even light out, but you've somewhere to be - no hesitation.
No, I've never seen you like this and I don't like it.
I don't like it.
I dont like it at all.

Just put back the car keys or somebody's going to get hurt.
Who are you calling at this hour?
sit down, come round , I need you now.
We'll work it all out together.
We're getting no where tonight.
Now sleep.
I promise, it'll all seem better somehow in time.

It's not even light out.
Suddenly, you've somewhere to be - no hesitation.
I've never seen you like this.
You're scaring me.
You're scaring me.
You're scaring me to death.

Don't.. oh..(smash) please.
Don't.. oh..(and another one) please.
Don't.. oh..(smash) please.
Don't.. oh..(and another one) please.

I'm losing you.
I'm losing you, trust me on this one.
I've got a bad feeling, trust me on this one.
You're going to throw it all away with no hesitation.
Smash..
