lyrics

I don’t think this is a heartache you’ll recover from,
Don’t trust me, I’m not as good as my word,
You might think I am as safe a bet as any,
But I am indecisive, I can be persuasive,
Give you a night, I’ll set your heart,
Racing,

Truth be true, it aches me through to think of you,
And I was no fool but there was a time when I was more me than you knew,
You say I’m addictive, I don’t wanna be vindictive,
But my mind is predictive and I can’t help it,
Reeling,

I want you, come on, help me make this mistake,
I wanna play you there as you lay,
I wanna lose you, I want you to take,
Take every little piece of me and make me your last symphony,
Then send me packing, send me packing on my way,

You know it does nothing for me anymore,
Tell myself to back off, my own back up against the floor,
And each word you use cuts through,
The night, it’s like a fight knife and I don’t need the street light,
As long as I’ve got your lips and your eyes and your arms,
Tight about me,
Lately, there’s been something tired about me,

I want you, come on, help me make this mistake,
I wanna play you there as you lay,
I wanna lose you, I want you to take,
Take every little piece of me and make me your last symphony,
Then send me packing, send me packing on my way,

I don’t think this is a heartache you’ll recover from,
Don’t trust me, I’m not as good as my worth,
You might think I am as safe a bet as any,
But I am indecisive, I can be persuasive,
Give you a night, I’ll set your heart,
Racing, racing.
