Lyrics

Before you leave me with my body on fire, Before you just walk away, Tell me what nerve you have thinking of making love to me When you know you can’t stay. Before you leave, I’ll earn the right to let you go But somehow you keep creeping in. Visions of Ferris wheels against the summer sky play backdrop To your slightest touch on my skin. You said that you could make a key to fit any door. You said you predicted I would need you more. You professed your love to me, but how can I believe What you say before you leave? Before you leave, put a pulse on the madness Before you reach the avalanche. Try to see my invariable sadness Each time you give another chance. You said that you could make a key to fit any door. You said you predicted you would miss me more. You professed your love to me, but how can I believe What you say before you leave? Everything is subject to your approval, All the places you go trucking through. Maybe I’m a victim of love’s removal Until you see my point of view. Before you leave something you know we’ll never have, Before you turn the other key, I’ll imagine that you love me, but how can I believe What you say before you leave? What you say before you leave.
