מילות השיר
I wanna hold you in the open
I wanna keep the door from closing, yeah
I wanna see you in the morning
I wanna be there but I’m boring you
You wanna shove me in the corner
Because you know you’re my madonna, yeah
You want me crying in the courthouse
I’m tired of acting like we’re cat and mouse
I miss the days when we were crushing on each other
Now you’re just crushing my soul, my lover
I miss the days when you could never love another
Now you’re just someone that I’ll never recover
I’m drunk and walking past the corner store
And I’ve been thinking ‘bout you more and more
Cause when you’re gone it all becomes a chore
And then I don’t know what I do it for
In times like these the mind becomes a crazy place
I feel like this because I miss your taste
Sometimes I feel like I could leave this place
But then I think about my mother’s face
I miss the days when we were crushing on each other
Now you’re just crushing my soul, my lover
I miss the days when you could never love another
Now you’re just someone that I’ll never recover
What if we had lived our lives
And we left the house at different times
And you bumped into another guy
He looks up at you to catch your eyes
He picks up your things and apologizes
And now he’s picking you up at nine
And now we’re living in alternate lives
I miss the days when we were crushing on each other
Now you’re just crushing my soul, my lover
I miss the days when you could never love another
Now you’re just someone that I’ll never recover
I won’t call it off ‘till I’m stone
I’ll write a book with all the reasons I could call you my home, but I won’t
‘Cause you’re unavailable
I won’t save myself, I’m unwell
I’d rather take another bottle off the top of the shelf than get help
‘Cause you’re no good for my health
I wish I knew how to quit you
You were never mine but I was always yours
I wish I knew how to quit you
But I’m addicted to you more and more
When I put you on the counter of my tiny place in Brooklyn and we kissed like there was nothing to lose, did you feel what I did too?
Oh, you’re in my DNA, so much exchanged
At least I know when you’re away there’ll always be apart of you that stays
You’re the echo in my veins
I wish I knew how to quit you
You were never mine but I was always yours
I wish I knew how to quit you
But I’m addicted to you more and more
I love you while I sleep then I wake up alone
I live inside a house, without you it’s not home
They don’t know what it’s like to live and never know if the one that you wait for is ever gonna show
I wish I knew how to quit you
You were never mine but I was always yours
I wish I knew how to quit you
But I’m addicted to you more and more
I wish I knew how to quit you
You were never mine but I was always yours
I wish I knew how to quit you
But I’m addicted to you more and more
As I walk down canal street I see the girls with the low rise jeans
But they do nothing to me
Cause these are the streets where we used to be
As I walk down canal street I see the girls that could cover the magazines
But they’re just not my scene
Cause these were the streets where we used to be
Do you still smoke on the patio?
Is your brother still in the hospital?
Do you hear me crying out for you on the radio?
I’ve got everything I thought I’d need now but I’m still smoking cigarettes on my couch
And it kills my mom but it brings me back to you
And I try to go on dates
But none of them are you
None of them are you
And I look for girls with your traits
But none of them are you
None of them are you
Now I’m back in the city and the lights are looking pretty for the holidays
But all it does is bring me back to your face
This time last year I was putting the tree up in your place
Do you still smoke on the patio?
Is your brother still in the hospital?
Do you hear me crying out for you on the radio?
I’ve got everything I thought I’d need now but I’m still smoking cigarettes on my couch
And it kills my mom but it brings me back to you
And I try to go on dates
But none of them are you
None of them are you
And I look for girls with your traits
But none of them are you
None of them are you
Was I what you wanted even for a little while?
Even for a while?
And I try to go on dates
But none of them are you
None of them are you
And I look for girls with your traits
But none of them are you
None of them are you
You’re living in the city and I’m living in the crevices of your heart
You like to spend your time with me while you wait for something prevalent to start
I don’t seek your pity, just want the chance to show you I’ve got more than charm
For you I’m nothing but a feeling, you’re living free but in a few years I’ll do you harm
And I said
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
I won’t waste your time
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
We can be more than friends
I wanna love you ‘till the end of my life
‘Cause you’re a ten and I’m a man that needs a dime
(Oh I)
You’re on a plane to Europe, and I just know you will do so well overseas
But I just can’t seem to cheer up knowing you will forget me
And I said
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
I won’t waste your time
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
We can be more than friends
I wanna love you ‘till the end of my life
‘Cause you’re a ten and I’m a man that needs a dime
(Oh I)
Is it a crime to care so much for another you’re left with nothing for yourself
When you’re the one who needs help
(Ooh)
We can be more than friends
I wanna love you ‘till the end of my life
‘Cause you’re a ten and I’m a man that needs a dime
Oh I wanna be more than friends
I wanna love you ‘till the end of my life
‘Cause you’re a ten and I’m a man that needs a dime
(Oh I)
If you give a dog a bone, he will follow you home and wait for you until he’s bored of you
If you call telephone and leave a note at the tone, I won’t ignore you, been waiting for you
Come closer or stay away
I can’t take loving you halfway
I’ve learned to love the way you taste
The in between I cannot take
We’re in a dimly lit restaurant on the lower east side and you look gorgeous, yeah I adore you
You’re the only one I want, and I am one of your pawns, you look around the room to see who looks at you
Come closer or stay away
I can’t take loving you halfway
I’ve learned to love the way you taste
The in between I cannot take
Loving you isn’t hard
It’s letting go that leaves a scar
Do you feel me too in your heart?
Or only when I touch your parts?
Come closer or stay away
I can’t take loving you halfway
I’ve learned to love the way you taste
The in between I cannot take
Come closer or stay away
I can’t take loving you halfway
I’ve learned to love the way you taste
The in between I cannot take
(Come closer or stay away)
(I can’t take loving you halfway)
(I’ve learned to love the way you taste)
(The in between I cannot take)
She went to church, she was from the ‘burbs, when she passed all the heads turned
I’m from New York, rode a skateboard and camped out on a corner
She and I didn’t see eye to eye on politics and such
But when I tell you, oh, none of that mattered, when we got together it was love
I saw her at her worst, still I desired her
I learned to read her eyes and know when she would lie
I watched her start to hate me ‘till she could no longer take me
(Oh)
She locked the door but she left the key under the mat
Oh and I’ve known this for a while but I am still too afraid to act
Oh and it’s coming off the hinges, from the wall it has detached
Oh and I’ve known this for a while but I am still too afraid to act
We moved into a shoebox out of school and it felt like a honeymoon
She’d go to work while I made my songs, for a moment there it was just us two
I saw her at her worst, still I desired her
I learned to read her eyes and know when she would lie
I watched her start to hate me ‘till she could no longer take me
(Oh)
She locked the door but she left the key under the mat
Oh and I’ve known this for a while but I am still too afraid to act
Oh and it’s coming off the hinges, from the wall it has detached
Oh and I’ve known this for a while but I am still too afraid to act
I was doing fine until it hit me on a random day in July that she’ll never be mine again in this lifetime
I was doing fine until it hit me on a random day in July that I’ll never be satisfied ‘cause she will never be mine
She locked the door but she left the key under the mat
Oh and I’ve known this for a while but I am still too afraid to act
Oh and it’s coming off the hinges, from the wall it has detached
Oh and I’ve known this for a while but I am still too afraid to act
(Eeeh, ahh)
(Eeeh, ahh)
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)
(aah, aah, aah, aah, aah)
(aah, aah)
