You said,
You're hard to understand,
Guess I never stood a chance,
I'll never be the one to hold your hand
I'm just someone who's bed you've been in, and
Guess now I'll never wonder why
You remind me of the summer
If you've got her,
Why would you ever need me?
You think I don't know but believe me
I do,
And when I see you,
I still feel the ache but I'm tired
I gave over my desire
The last time I lay with you
I hadn't felt that way since I was seventeen
When I met you and you said
This is the eighth night of the week
I said boy you dance better
You dance better than me
And I don't know what it is about you
Coz I guess I'm doing fine without you
But at night, when I can't sleep,
I think about all the sparks you don't have for me
You said it started from interest
But now there's not much left
I said put your hand on my chest
Feel how my heart beats
Coz for you its easy
But whenever you're near me
My heart it gets crazy
My love, don't you see?
If you've got her,
Why would you ever need me?
You think I don't know but believe me
I do,
And when I see you,
I still feel the ache but I'm tired
I gave over my desire
The last time I lay with you
I hadn't felt that way since I was seventeen
When I met you and you said
This is the eighth night of the week
I said boy you dance better
You dance better than me
And I don't know what it is about you
Coz I guess I'm doing fine without you
But at night, when I can't sleep,
I think about all the sparks you don't have for me
I remember the last time that you left
My door at 4 am
Are we good? That's what you said
And I said we always are
Told you I don't know how I feel
I just don't love many people
I guess thats why it felt real
Even though its not
Why would you ever need me?
You think I don't know but believe me
I do,
And when I see you,
I still feel the ache but I'm tired
I gave over my desire
The last time I lay with you
I hadn't felt that way since I was seventeen
When I met you and you said
This is the eighth night of the week
I said boy you dance better
You dance better than me
And I don't know what it is about you
Coz I guess I'm doing fine without you
But at night, when I can't sleep,
I think about all the sparks you don't have for me
