lyrics

Meet me in the bedroom
In my best dress, Sunday’s finest
I’ll be your every want
If only for a kiss

Real as the ocean we jumped in
Water still drips down my legs
Real as the things unforgiven
Still I play pretend

It was yours to want, it was mine to give
While you’d escape your world
You’d lay siege to my own
Now I wait, but you never come

I’m not your evening news
Can’t turn it off when it goes bad
You were something blue, but I saw you
Now you say I shouldn’t have

Remember the motions we’d follow
You’d beg me not to go
Remember all of your I love yous
Now, you can’t even pretend

It was yours to want, it was mine to give
While you’d escape your world
You’d lay siege to my own
Now I wait, but you never come

Left the key under the door
While I cried on the floor
You shook me from your skin
Why can’t you love me right,
Like I’m brand new again?

It was yours to want, it was mine to give
While you’d escape your world
You’d lay siege to my own
Now I wait
