Take it all away

Breathe your smoke into my lungs
In the back of a car with you I stare into the sun
Still not too old to die young
But lovers hold on to everything
And lovers hold on to anything

I chase your love around a figure 8
I need you more than I can take
You promised forever and a day
And then you take it all away (-way, -way, -way)
And then you take it all away (-way, -way, -way, -way, -way)

Place a kiss on my cheekbone
Then you vanish me, I'm buried in the snow
But something tells me I'm not alone
But lovers hold on to everything
And lovers hold on to anything

I chase your love around a figure 8
I need you more than I can take
You promised forever and a day
And then you take it all away (-way, -way, -way)
And then you take it all away (-way, -way, -way, -way, -way)

So lovers hold on to everything
And lovers hold to anything
So lovers hold on to everything
And lovers hold to anything

I chase your love around a figure 8
I need you more than I can take
You promised forever and a day
And then you take it all away
I chase your love around a figure 8
I need you more than I can take
You promised forever and a day
And then you take it all away (-way, -way, -way, -way, -way, -way)
And then you take it all away (-way, -way, -way, -way)

    Who did you chase? Are you friggin' nuts. Do you concoct fantasies in that big arrogant brain of yours. The only people you chase around and catch are teens. But since that floats your lil' boat, please sail away. The sex is great and you're a stud for your temporary conquest. Strut like the f*cking turkey that you are. It must feel SOOOOO good to be in a relationship because you can.
