lyrics

I knew you were a snake in the grass the first time I met you.
I knew I never stood a chance but I still adored you.
I don’t question the past, I just run into the wind,
but I just have to ask are you happier for it?

I knew you only had my back to stick a knife in it.
And every time that we had a pact you’d go and run your mouth about it.
Why can’t you just be where it is you said you’d be?
I always have to wait and see what trouble you bring me.

I left before, but it won’t be long ’till I come back again.

You and me are one in the same though it don’t add up yet.
Riding separate cars on passing trains we cross for an instant,
but I just can’t sustain unless I put my lips on it.
I just have to taste what it’s like to have it.

I left before, but it won’t be long ‘till I come back again.
