lyrics

I'm hanging on by the skin of my teeth
I'm watching you so closely
I'm forgetting to breath.
You whirl in like a small town cyclone
You're leaving me standing with nowhere to go

And you say let's take our time
it's what makes love better like a good case of wine.
And you leave me out on the line
well why waste your own heart if you can waste mine.

I step out like a child on the ice
and it feels kind of dangerous
it feels kind of nice.
Till the cracks start to form at my toes
and everyone sees them
and everyone knows.

And you say babe it's not true
The world needs a maker
the way I need you.
You don't mean what you say
Do you think I don't notice the games that you play?

Well I heard that a fool is a term
for someone who keeps on
and never quite learns.
Well I could run like a fool after you
But something keeps telling me that it just won't do.

Oh you throw me away
You tell me I'm worth the world
But you just won't pay.
Well, Oh baby it's true
I'm One in a Million and I'm not for you
