I see right through you, but
you don't even have the right to tell me now.
I don't think you have the right to tell me now
but you do, you say you do
Well, this is new to me
‘cause I had never had the time to figure out.
Give me a little bit of time to figure out how
I want this all to be.
And oh I know, she knows,
but every time i just can't shake this
No, she's fine, but every time I just won't take this
Now!
Will she go all the way?
But there's still this price to pay.
Can everyone just stop?
Oh no…
I'm not that social, but
free association might just give me some,
indeterminate tale to spin upon you.
Believe me when I do,
Say that I’m lonely now.
And I wouldn't mind to spend the night with you.
If it wasn't for the fact that I am held back,
by years of history.
And oh I know, she knows,
but every time i just can't shake this
No, she's fine, but every time I just won't take this
Now!
Will she go all the way?
But there's still this price to pay.
Can everyone just stop?
Oh no…
But remember when this is through,
I will be better of without you.
If all the things that you said were true,
then I would be better of without you.
Without you.
