I know you think you're slick but baby 

I know your dirty tricks 

 

It's not something I'd like to believe 

Yet I know something's up whenever you leave 

 

I can smell the perfume 

I know you have no curfew but it's as though the clock's tick has no purpose 

I now feel worthless

 

Yet I run back to you, my way of thinking has become askew

 

I never meant to get this deep 

But now I'm here losing sleep 

 

Thinking of you 

Sinking in the words that you said 

Holding back the constant dread 

 

It wasn't always like this 

 

We used to be close, in love

Two turtle doves, in a big world 

 

Not ready for the pressure, 

Even if it had been something that we could measure
