Lyrics
Draw me in
Drag this out
Cut me down
Knock me out
I?m out on a limb
For you once again
You can take your time
'Cos you don?t care when
I don?t like my work
I don?t? like myself
I don?t like the thought
You?re with someone else
And the truth may hurt
But not too much
I just make things worse
When I won?t face up
But I could tell from your face
You don?t think you have to try
I?m feeling lost in you?re wake
You won?t give me no reply
You?ll never want me the way
I want you
But don?t be shy
?Cos I can love you enough for us both
If you?ll only try
And I can tell from your face?
