Catch my breath and hold it for me
I'm wasting my time
Trying to make up my mind
I'm sitting here as the chandelier is whispering in my ear
Saying: Can I get a cigarette?
No, you'll never be mine

Can you come around tonight
And sing me a lullaby?
Just take my heart and break it
Can you come around tonight?
I might be the enemy
But nothing quite hits like you
No

Oh, take this pen and write for me
Oh, write me a song and I'll try to forget it
Oh, I'm standing there as the man upstairs
Comes crashing through the ceiling
Saying: Where's my fucking cigarette?
With fire in his eyes

Can you come around tonight
And sing me a lullaby?
Just take my heart and break it
When you come around tonight?
I might be the enemy
But nothing quite hits like you

And as all my patience starts to dry
And my feet leave skids across the sand
Then I'll know that you've won
And I'll run

Back to where I came from
