The Way That I Need You |
About one year later your daddy was born and your |
grandma held my hand so tight |
Oh I can’t tell the joy as she brought forth new life, |
by the glow of the kerosene light, by the glow of the kerosene light. |
He’s the deflated balloon wrapped around your gait |
Cut priced to clear a past to «sell by date» |
He’ll be fool running through the church screaming out «it's not too late» |
When he does, I know that you’ll wait |
He’s the drunk man with bad breath coming on too strong |
He’s the beauty queen that strings your heart along |
And he’ll answer every question in your new-age magazine wrong |
But I know you’ll love him strong |
So I’m leaving before there’s nothing to believe in |
I’m just craving for a love I never knew |
Please don’t go mistreating me |
I’m not saying you’ve been misleading me Just not needing me the way that I need you |
He’s the elephant in the room that never speaks |
But you dream about him every two weeks |
I wouldn’t know his name, but you call it in your sleep |
Oh I know you love him deep |
So run back to him like you should |
I guess I always knew that you would |
For he’s captured your heart in a way I never could |
So go on and love him good |
So I’m leaving before there’s nothing to believe in |
I’m just craving for a love I’ve never knew |
I’m the stray cat you keep feeding |
You’re the book I can’t stop reading |
But the tides are receding that it’s true |
So please don’t go mistreating me |
I’m not saying you’ve been misleading me, |
Just not needing me the way that I need you |
Just not needing me the way that I need you |
