Say you’ll need me time and time again.
But I would love to dance and I’ll see you again anyway
But oh my, my what you said and the things you can’t take away
See, what you need in me most and we’ll take it slow day by day
And please, won’t you hold me in your arms
And I can’t help to hide from what you said
One more time, it’s okay and I won’t level with you
But please come on home to your house made of sticks and bones
I swear it’s not as weird as not, having you here anymore
Just walk in instead
Chorus:
You wanna play but you don’t wonder why
All the things that make us say goodbye anytime it’s ok
I’m a loser ‘cause I don’t know how to not be one
Know how to not, know how to not be one yet.
Talk to your back, hold your arms high over your head
And please, say it before your black elephant comes knocking at my door
And I, say it’s fine but I don’t question why
I’m running back to you and taking my time
And oh my Lord, I couldn’t want you more
Chorus:
You wanna play but you don’t wonder why
All the things that make us say goodbye anytime it’s okay
I’m a loser ‘cause I don’t know how to not be one
Know how to not be, know how to not be one...
Chorus:
You wanna play but you don’t wonder why
All the things that make us say goodbye anytime it’s okay
I’m a loser ‘cause I don’t know how to not be one
Please, save my soul
You pass me your peace pipe when I’m out of control
And I’ll, infiltrate your head all the time
Send me your lies through the eyes of the Devil
I cannot see you and God as the same, ooh I cannot see, you and God as the same.
