"Hey," you said, I'm sorry but I ain't quite
Heaven-sent, my nervous system's just a
Nervous wreck, and on and on
We're torn apart and strung along
Yeah, we tried, but never could escape the
Long goodbye, and crashed into the dark
Beneath the ice, and in my dreams
I lie awake and kick the sheets
You are so inordinary
Seems so scary to be buried
You know I just can't keep my mind off you
The pain's so deep, I can't get through
With the midnight black and white tattoos
'Cause the same old fights,
they just won't do (they won't do)
"Hey," you said, I'm sorry but I just got
Filled with dread, I'm haunted by the voice
Inside my head, and on and on
This broken heart will carry on
You are so inordinary
Seems so scary to be buried
You know I just can't keep my mind off you
The pain's so deep, I can't get through
With the midnight black and white tattoos
'Cause the same old fights, they just won't do
Now I just can't keep my mind off you
This hurts so bad, I can't get through
But I always say, "I'll wait for you"
'Cause the same old girls, they just won't do
Save me like the last time
The best ten days of my life
The best ten days of my life
Save me, save me like the last time
The last ten days of my life
The last ten days of my life
You know I just can't keep my mind off you
The pain's so deep, I can't get through
With the midnight black and white tattoos
'Cause the same old fights, they just won't do
Now I just can't keep my mind off you
This hurts so bad, I can't get through
But I always say, "I'll wait for you"
'Cause the same old girls, they just won't do
And now I just can't keep my mind off you
This hurts so bad, I can't get through
But I always say, "I'll wait for you"
'Cause the same old girls, they just won't do
