It seems you wanna give me
|
Oh, a life time of security
|
Down on your dying knees
|
I watch you, babe, I watch you plead
|
|
But your words come much too late
|
My love for you has turned to hate
|
'Cause you've taken too much time
|
To show me that you're mine
|
|
When I drop you boy
|
You'll need another toy
|
One that won't stand up for herself
|
When I knock you down
|
You'll need another town
|
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
|
You just let me wait
|
Now it's too late
|
For your delayed, delayed devotion
|
|
You try to convince me
|
Oh, about the possibilities
|
But I know that all your poetry
|
Just comes from insecurity
|
|
'Cause your actions speak nothing no more
|
When it's what I've been waiting for
|
'Cause you've taken too much time
|
|
To show me that you're mine
|
|
When I drop you boy
|
You'll need another toy
|
One that won't stand up for herself
|
When I knock you down
|
You'll need another town
|
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
|
'Cause you just let me wait
|
Now it's too late
|
For your delayed devotion
|
|
You played me for a fool for too long
|
Blinded by your lies I never saw your all
|
I'm no longer under your spell
|
Hear it in a song
|
You can go to Hell
|
|
When I drop you boy
|
You'll need another toy
|
One that won't stand up for herself
|
When I knock you down
|
You'll need another town
|
Where somebody's gonna talk to you
|
You just let me wait
|
And now its too late
|
For your delayed, delayed emotion
|
