Curled up on the sofa with your tail between your legs I won't pretend that I know you, but I wish just one time I could get inside your head All the treasures that you're hiding All your secrets never safe Are adding up to lines of frustration I read it on your face You know I love you even when you run away from me But I don't want to chase you any more So if you have to go away then I won't make you stay Just lie awake and listen for the door With a lack of direction With eyes sad and red In need of affection You wind up on my bed And all the treasures that you're hiding You know they're never safe with me Won't let you be my god Won't let you be my slave What else is there left to be You know I love you even when you run away from me But I don't want to chase you any more So if you have to go away then I won't make you stay Just lie awake and listen for the door
