I've waited too long For this to be easy Each time that it's wrong I fake how I'm feeling Ooh ooh I sit at your table You lay in my bed We talk at each other But so much gets unsaid You can be the sunset on the ocean Or you can be the salt in the sea Each time that I think we're getting closer You run away from me You run out on the town And come stumbling home I taste trouble on your mouth And there's a chill in my bones You can be the sweet flame of desire Or you can be the ashes when it burns Each time I think the fire's getting hotter The wind it starts to turn And you don't see me leaving you Cause you're already gone And if you think I'll be grieving you You may not be wrong You can be the sweet smell of roses You can be the autumn in the leaves Each time that I think you're getting bolder You fade away from me You fade away from me
