Speak Low If You Speak Love Lyrics "Have My Head"  My mother would have my head if she knew what I did  She'd have my head if she knew what I did  You were the opposite of elegance, with a trace left of me on your fingertips  A compromise of body and mind for you  And everything that I'd been taught turned as black as the hair on the back of your arm  Your olive skin retreated again that night  So I sat in my car with my head on the dash, waiting for this to pass  My mother would have my head if she knew what I did  She'd have my head if she knew what I did  Visions of you from three nights before haunted me as a slipped out the door  My rotten judgment rose above me once again  I spun in my stool hoping that you would give me the attention I was accustomed to  But it never came, you stayed the same: selfish, unkind and still in my way  We found ourselves tangled up in words we didn't mean  I'm guilty too, but somehow everything meant more to me h
