I got eyes in the back of my head and I, see where you're going with this
|
I'm not surprised
|
You take me for a fool, maybe you're right
|
If I was wiser I would not have let myself come here tonight
|
|
You sold yourself, you'll never learn (You sold yourself...)
|
Here I am watching the summer fading (The summer we shared fade away with the winter)
|
Your hands were warm on my face. Now they're cold, pushing away (Your hands were warm now...)
|
Slowly now (Colder than ice and they are slowly pushing me away)
|
Pushing me away
|
|
I knew it (I knew it) right from the start
|
I got this big, big hole in my heart
|
I wanted (I wanted) to put you in
|
But for some reason you just wouldn't fit
|
You just wouldn't fit
|
|
You sold yourself, You'll never learn (You sold yourself...)
|
Here I am watching the summer fading (The summer we shared fade away with the winter)
|
Your hands were warm on my face. Now they're cold, pushing away (Your hands were warm now...)
|
Slowly now (Colder than ice and they are slowly pushing me away)
|
Pushing me away, pushing me away, pushing me away
|
|
Lust can give a man so many regrets
|
Just this once is what we tell ourselves
|
|
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
|
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
|
|
Ships don't sink if they have wind in their sails
|
But if the wind fails is there hope for me (I guess your love, was only as safe..)
|
I thought your love was safe as promise you made (..as the promise you made...)
|
|
Now I am drowning in your shallow sea; I swim
|
(you are the storm, the wind and the waves, you break me in two and toss me away)
|
You are the waves that toss me in.
|
(I fell apart when I fell for you)
|
|
How can I float above the water that fills my lungs?
|
(you are the water filing my lungs, killing me softly without a word)
|
Killing me softly without a word.
|
(Without a word)
|
