lyrics

It never takes too long before I'm fallin' in to your arms again
Stop trying to fight, I think you kind of like it

We've been here before,
me knocking on your door
with a flower in my hand
making all my demands saying
We're just the right amount of
can we work this out and
I've had it up to here I'll
see you in a year

You turn away to leave,
I grab you by the sleeve
Start to pull you in and say
This isn't how this ends

It never takes too long before I'm fallin' in to your arms again
Stop trying to fight, I think you kind of like it

We've been here before,
laying on this floor
distracted by sensations and
locked in conversations
I can't help myself
you turn me into someone else
Got me on my knees
Begging you oh please

You turn away to leave,
I grab you by the sleeve
Start to pull you in and say
This isn't how this ends

It never takes too long before I'm fallin' in to your arms again
Stop trying to fight, I think you kind of like it

Maybe it's the time or the place
Maybe it's that look that you get upon your face
Or maybe it's the way you hold me
Maybe it's the way you love me but

It never takes too long before I'm fallin' in to your arms again
Stop trying to fight, I think you kind of like it
