lyrics

INTRO
VERSE 1
We built a garden, with no design It grew it grew then we choked the vine Assaulted wine it tastes just fine When all that’s left is better times
VERSE 2
ignore the signals and the signs treat ‘em with assaulted wines hold your kisses, hold them close when you let them slip you’ll miss them most
la la la ...
CHORUS
I was nothing but a lazy lover overcome by the space Couldn’t find myself another to stand in for your place
VERSE 3
when they want more and it seems easy Well don’t you forget about me you’re so much more then what makes pretty but sweet talk won’t make you hear me You’re so much more then what makes pretty but sweet talk won’t bring you near me
CHORUS
I was nothing but a lazy lover overcome by the space Couldn’t find myself another to stand in for your place
Bridge
Whisper secrets in the dark Always searching for the spark But my hands are burning, my hands are burning holding on to you so don’t you.
Verse 4
Lose your kisses, hold them close When you let them slip you’ll miss them most Don’t leave them with another choice Sing their praise give them a voice
la la la ...
CHORUS
