And all of your defences start to fail
Someone that you thought was just a memory
Come back to remind you that you failed
Someone to remind you what a fool you used to be
Someone that you're always thinking of
Why does you're heart beat a little faster?
When you see somebody that you used to love
Well love is not the gentlest of obsessions
Not too many get the chance to know
You get to count yourself among the lucky
You have felt the fire and the cold
You swear you're going to watch yourself
The next time
One day when you've finally had enough
But all your resolutions get so shaky
When you see somebody that you used to love
Well if you had a nickel for each moment
That love has kept you staring at the ground
Between the wide Atlantic and Pacific
You would be the richest fool around
You can see the old wound
Hidden underneath the scars
Like you know a hand is hid
Beneath a glove
It still gives you away
When your fever starts to raise
When you see somebody
That you used to love
When you see somebody
That you used to love
Suddenly the walls around you crumble And all of your defences start to fail Someone that you thought was just a memory Come back to remind you that you failed Someone to remind you what a fool you used to be Someone that you're always thinking of Why does you're heart beat a little faster? When you see somebody that you used to love Well love is not the gentlest of obsessions Not too many get the chance to know You get to count yourself among the lucky You have felt the fire and the cold You swear you're going to watch yourself The next time One day when you've finally had enough But all your resolutions get so shaky When you see somebody that you used to love Well if you had a nickel for each moment That love has kept you staring at the ground Between the wide Atlantic and Pacific You would be the richest fool around You can see the old wound Hidden underneath the scars Like you know a hand is hid Beneath a glove It still gives you away When your fever starts to raise When you see somebody That you used to love When you see somebody That you used to love Explain Request ×
