| Oh, this was just an empty space
|
| Before we tried to live
|
| Clean windows and a can of paint
|
| And we began to build
|
| In spite of them
|
| Try to build it up yeah
|
| Try to build it up
|
| In spite of them
|
| Had to build it up yeah
|
| Had to build it up
|
| I have felt such an imbalance
|
| Loved my way around it
|
| And everyone around believed
|
| That one of us was in it for the profit
|
| For the profit, for the profit
|
| Just for the profit
|
| For the profit, for the profit
|
| And now we’re months behind the rent
|
| Every dollar gone unspent
|
| Getting closer to the end
|
| It all depends
|
| If you would break from me
|
| Break from me
|
| Break away from me
|
| You tried to lease my love
|
| Lease my love, lease my love
|
| But you can’t cheat my love
|
| Go on and lease my love
|
| Lease my love, lease my love
|
| You can’t cheat my love
|
| I knew this day would come,
|
| It came so very quick
|
| I knew that once we fell apart
|
| No glue would ever stick
|
| And we would fall
|
| For the profit, for the profit
|
| And we would fall
|
| For the profit, for the profit
|
| Now we’re months behind the rent
|
| Every dollar gone unspent
|
| Getting closer to the end
|
| It all depends
|
| If you would break from me
|
| Break from me
|
| Break away from me
|
| You tried to lease my love
|
| Lease my love, lease my love
|
| But you can’t cheat my love
|
| Go on and lease my love
|
| Lease my love, lease my love
|
| You can’t cheat my love
|
| I had been
|
| Hoping you’d fall for me soon
|
| You had been
|
| Planning a move
|
| And a part of me
|
| Knew that I was naive
|
| But I never believed
|
| You would actually leave
|
| You tried to lease my love
|
| Lease my love, lease my love
|
| But you can’t cheat my love
|
| Go on and lease my love
|
| Lease my love, lease my love
|
| You can’t cheat my love
|
| You tried to lease my love (Rochelle: We had ups and downs and)
|
| Lease my love, lease my love (Rochelle: Drowned in stormy weather)
|
| But you can’t cheat my love (Rochelle: But you can’t lease my love,
|
| 'cause my loving is forever)
|
| Go on and lease my love (Rochelle: You go ahead and leave me)
|
| Lease my love, lease my love (Rochelle: You’ll find no-one like me)
|
| You can’t cheat my love (Rochelle: And I will get ready, my love will never be
|
| for lease)
|
| You can’t lease my love |
