lyrics

Right then I knew it wasn't close
I knew it wasn't mutual
I tried to tell you that
it didn't have to be the same back
but I had to tell the truth
while everyone around me
was telling me not to
not to tell you that I love you
now you say you want to breath
where are we supposed to go?
who are we supposed to be?
seems I made the wrong move again
was I only there to please
dark hours in night
just fulfill a need
and then toss aside
oh that's the way she goes
fast or maybe slow
as it's burning up the ropes
I want you even more

One more night with you
Just one more night with you

then I hear you're coming into town
and I know you won't call me
who you gonna call
who you gonna be with
while I'm sleeping in my bed
with someone else in my arms
wondering who you're with
wondering where you are
and why your hairs not here with me
all over my face oh
your skin and sweat/'s so sweet
i wish it was covering me
oh it happened oh so fast
how long'd it even last
you said you gave your chance
but baby when was that
well that's just the way she goes
hold your breath here comes a tunnell
we'll see how long we hold
Our breath
How far we make it down the road

Now everything you say I just assume that it's a lie
hurt so many times before why do I even try
to believe you any more yeah you've fooled me more than twice
all the times you've led me round, you've lost count, there's no doubt girl that's not very nice

like when you told me that you love me
you told me that that you love me
what was I supposed to think?
Think of what you mean to me
then you ripped my heart
when you said I take it back
they say wounds are healed with time
But it's been a fucking while now
and I can't see the light
in any girl I meet
Oh all I see's your smile
us walking through the streets
So I barely let them through
And even if I do
It't just to to play the part
another night to make it through
sometimes that's just the way she goes
the one that you love don't love you back
and the one that loves you
you don't give a fuck about it
Well I still miss your kiss
Miss making my way up your hips
Oh i wanna kiss your lips
And not just the ones that you talk with

Please say there's some way
To fix this baby
