Incense by Emma Hunton Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The incense that you burn
Reminds me of that day
That I first went to your place
I learned about your life
Over bottles of cheap wine
As your incense filled the space
[Chorus]
But I don't really know you
I don't really know you
At all
[Verse 2]
You'd burn a stick or two
As I sleep next to you
It reminds you of the past
That subtle sweet perfume
That you used to fill your room
Why can't it ever last
[Chorus]
I don't really know you
I don't really know you
At all
[Bridge]
And now it's becoming clear
That somebody else was here
And you only only burn the incense
To get rid of the evidence
Not gonna ask how you could lie
Because the better question is why
And I wonder if it could be
It wasn't her you were trying to burn away
But me
[Verse 3]
The incense that you burned
Reminded me of the day
That you and I first met
But now I think of this
The moment I saw you two kiss
It's not something you forget
[Chorus]
I don't really know you
I don't really know you
At all
At all
The incense that you burn
Reminds me of that day
That I first went to your place
I learned about your life
Over bottles of cheap wine
As your incense filled the space
[Chorus]
But I don't really know you
I don't really know you
At all
[Verse 2]
You'd burn a stick or two
As I sleep next to you
It reminds you of the past
That subtle sweet perfume
That you used to fill your room
Why can't it ever last
[Chorus]
I don't really know you
I don't really know you
At all
[Bridge]
And now it's becoming clear
That somebody else was here
And you only only burn the incense
To get rid of the evidence
Not gonna ask how you could lie
Because the better question is why
And I wonder if it could be
It wasn't her you were trying to burn away
But me
[Verse 3]
The incense that you burned
Reminded me of the day
That you and I first met
But now I think of this
The moment I saw you two kiss
It's not something you forget
[Chorus]
I don't really know you
I don't really know you
At all
At all
