| We’re caught in a trap
|
| And I can’t walk out until
|
| I collect the missing clues
|
| It’s you, it’s you
|
| And I worked to make it work
|
| And I let myself get hurt
|
| And kept sinking deep in you
|
| All of my friends keep telling me that
|
| «There's nothing to it»
|
| But if this is love, it ain’t enough
|
| And I can’t go through with it can’t
|
| Keep it up
|
| We’re at the party, they’re playing the songs
|
| And we’re right here
|
| But we never get to dance
|
| We just sit and stare
|
| You won’t love me when I’m older
|
| You only settle for the thrill
|
| And while you sit there drinking water
|
| «You cruel, careless man»
|
| I’m trying hard to swim
|
| I’ve sorted it out
|
| Like they say «you know… love burns
|
| Like most good things do»
|
| But then it’s you
|
| It’s you on my window, it’s you on hallway
|
| It’s you on the rearview mirror talking
|
| It’s you on the radio in all the songs we’ve been through
|
| You won’t love me when I’m older
|
| You only settle for the thrill
|
| And while you sit there drinking water
|
| «You cruel, careless man»
|
| I’m trying hard to swim
|
| You won’t love me when I’m older
|
| You only settle for the thrill
|
| So go ahead and choke on water
|
| «You cruel, careless man»
|
| You will end where I begin |
