Oh I've been going through a hell of a time |
|
Making sense of everything you left behind |
|
When I arrange it into columns and lines |
|
I always think it's adding up, but it never does |
|
So in the morning maybe I'll be alright |
|
And through the day I'll prepare for the fight |
|
With a fever on a Saturday night |
|
Cause this is giving me the shakes and butterflies, oh |
|
And if you don't stop running you can never breathe |
|
When everything you want is everything you see |
|
But when it comes to decision baby, him or me |
|
Well I hope you can feel the need |
|
What made you an alley cat scratching me? |
|
You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth |
|
And run off to where your next big meal could be |
|
What made you an alley cat scratching me? |
|
You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth |
|
And run off because you must be tired of me |
|
Run off because you must be tired of me |
|
And there's a scene I will always replay |
|
At the moment when my hand touched your face |
|
I could see your eyes turning away |
|
But I've been standing my ground with you at bay |
|
And if you don't stop running you can never breathe |
|
When everything you want is everything you see |
|
But when it comes to decision baby, him or me |
|
Well I hope you can feel the need |
|
What made you an alley cat scratching me? |
|
You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth |
|
And run off to where your next big meal could be |
|
What made you an alley cat scratching me? |
|
You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth |
|
And run off because you must be tired of me |
|
Run off because you must be tired of me |
|
And now I fall in love with somebody everyday |
|
As they step aside when I'm walking by, or smile at something I say |
|
But I promised you it would never get in the way |
|
Of stability but the joke's on me, cause you were the one who got carried away |
|
Oh, you got carried away |
|
Well he carried you away |
|
Carried you away |
|
Carried you away |
|
Carried you away |
