| It doesn’t go away when you’re trying not to stay
|
| It doesn’t go away no matter the days
|
| When trying to forget, y’push it down with cigarettes or better yet
|
| Burn it up into a fire but none of it goes
|
| 'Cause I know what I know and I know what I shouldn’t
|
| It’s a loathsome truth between us now
|
| Send it up in smoke, the embers all aglow
|
| But it doesn’t go away, this aching old pain
|
| Ooh, ooh, ooh
|
| No, it doesn’t when you’re trying
|
| No, it doesn’t go away, no matter the days
|
| 'Cause I know what I know and I know what I shouldn’t
|
| It’s a loathsome truth between us now
|
| If you’re on the level
|
| If you’re on the level
|
| Are you?
|
| If you’re on the level, on the level
|
| You can talk to me
|
| (Talk to me)
|
| If you’re on the level
|
| I’m gonna level with you anyway
|
| Are you flinty?
|
| (Strong)
|
| To hang my secrets on?
|
| If you’re on the level, on the level
|
| You can talk to me
|
| (Talk to me)
|
| If you’re on the level
|
| I’m gonna level with you anyway
|
| Are you flinty?
|
| (Strong)
|
| To hang my secrets on?
|
| Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
|
| Come back, dummy, get it, get home
|
| Come back, dummy, never leave me alone
|
| Bring some sweetness, sugar, your drug
|
| Gimme sickness, summa, summa your love
|
| 'Cause it doesn’t go away, even trying out the strays
|
| No, it doesn’t go away, no matter the days
|
| Send it up in smoke, the embers even show oh oh oh
|
| But it doesn’t go away, this aching old pain |
