Lyrics
CO-DEPENDENT
©? 2005 Lani Ford
VERSE 1:
He must like girls with drama
All these damsels in distress
Must have somethin' to do with Mama
Or why he's so darn depressed
When we play spin the bottle
Or he ties me up in bed
His smile is just so awful
And his eyes are cold and dead
Cuz
CHORUS:
He needs drugs
And I need him
There is no way
I can win
Not even sure
How to begin
Cuz he needs drugs--
And I need him
VERSE 2:
As soon as I think it's over
He comes crawlin' back to me
He says there hasn't been another
And he's callin' and followin' me
But it doesn't have to be a woman
To take the place of my body heat
And we all know that it's not
And then I feel defeat
Cuz
CHORUS
VERSE 3:
And I know that he'll be my ruin
Cuz he took me to the highest ecstasy
That I have ever been through
And it was not sexually
I guess that's why it's so hard
To let go of the good side of him
Cuz if someone could be perfect
He's the closest for me there's been
But
BRIDGE:
And I've heard the stories
And I've heard the lies
And I've seen the deceit
Deep in his eyesG
And I push him away
Then I reel him back in
But he's the one controlling
Me, on that I can depend cuz
CHORUS
