| She takes me out dancin'
|
| She separates my pills
|
| She gets away with murder
|
| Takes the money from my pants
|
| Takes the soundness out of days
|
| She takes the same shitty car to work
|
| Eighteen hours straight
|
| She tastes just like mercury
|
| Tempted by something sweet
|
| And now she takes her time at the end of the night
|
| And she pours another drink
|
| I picked my words, so the phrasing was right
|
| She makes it hard to think
|
| I learned from my father
|
| What it mans to be a man
|
| She took moves from hr mother
|
| How to fuss and how to fight
|
| How to put my mind at ease
|
| How to love me so tenderly
|
| She’ll bring me to my knees
|
| She tastes just like mercury
|
| Tempted by something sweet
|
| And now she takes her time at the end of the night
|
| And she pours another drink
|
| I picked my words, so the phrasing was right
|
| She makes it hard to think
|
| She makes it hard to think
|
| Why don’t you retrace your steps?
|
| Tell me what I’ve missed
|
| I will love you ‘til there’s nothing left
|
| When you know you’re gone
|
| You’re so gone
|
| You’re so gone
|
| You’re so gone
|
| I held her like a shadow
|
| She looked whole out in the street
|
| I screamed up at the streetlight
|
| She said, «I'm stuck inside my ways»
|
| Took my heart inside her hand
|
| Said, «It's so easy to love someone,»
|
| «So hard to be a man»
|
| She tastes just like mercury
|
| Tempted by something sweet
|
| And now she takes her time at the end of the night
|
| And she pours another drink
|
| I picked my words, so the phrasing was right
|
| She makes it hard to think
|
| She makes it hard to think |
