Knee deep in quicksand, a breath in the phone
It's all you ever wanted: a minute alone
It's wide-eyed and dreamy, it's ignorant bliss
It's all you ever wanted: a sweet soul-less kiss
What was that you used to say about me being all you could afford to give away?
Stared at the pavement as long as you dared
But all you really wanted is to stop feeling scared
Watching the big hand, along for the ride
It's all you ever wanted to let it all slide
What was that you used to say about me being all you could afford to give away?
Do go on, it helps me to see
All that's wrong is me
Bored with each other, amused with yourself
And all she really wanted was somebody else
Watching the big hand, along for the ride
It's all you ever wanted to let it all slide
What was that you used to say about me being all you could afford to give away?
What was that you used to say about me being all you could afford to give away?
