Lyrics

[00:12.58] Silly me,
[00:15.89] look what I did again
[00:18.92] I found what I want is what
[00:22.75] I cannot have
[00:25.53] I didn't mean to be so predictable
[00:31.54] But I blame it all on who made you irresistible
[00:38.04] And it isn't something
[00:39.85] I need'Til you tell me
[00:43.20] I can'tWhy wear my heart on my sleeve
[00:47.95] When it looks so good in your hands
[00:52.67] My heart breaks in a heart beat
[00:57.86] And you storm me when you come and go
[01:05.52] Taste of something so sweet should have
[01:11.78] Warned me 'bout the undertow
[01:16.44] And oh, I couldn't find a better man to let me go
[01:23.32] Little girl,
[01:26.50] I don't know why you stay
[01:29.49] If I had a feather for every time
[01:32.14] Daddy said, that
[01:33.67] I could fly away'
[01:35.92] Cause old habits are so hard to break
[01:42.83] It'd be a shame to stop
[01:45.52] Now that I've started to make really good mistakes
[01:48.97] And I don't know why
[01:50.48] I must ask
[01:52.53] For the forbidden fruit
[01:55.51] I saw the snake in the grass
[01:58.68] But I had bitten too soon
[02:02.87] My heart breaks in a heart beat
[02:08.44] And you storm me when you come and go
[02:16.10] Taste of something so sweet should have
[02:22.99] Warned me 'bout the undertow
[02:26.62] And oh, I couldn't find a better man to let me go
[02:35.69] I should have seen you coming in
[02:41.73] Should recognize the signs a wave's gonna break
[02:48.16] Now, given in, why fight it when
[02:54.92] I'm resigned to simply live in your wake, your wake
[03:06.26] Heart breaks, ooh, in a heart beat
[03:11.70] And you storm me when you come and go, oh
[03:19.03] Taste of something so sweet should have
[03:25.57] Warned me 'bout the undertow
[03:29.89] And oh, I couldn't find a better man to let me go
[03:36.21] No, no, no, no
[03:37.48] I couldn't find a better man to let me go
[04:09.81] Couldn't let me go
[04:13.47] Taking me away
[04:19.79] Taking me away, yet again
[04:25.90] Taking me away, taking me away
