To say the things I want to say to you would be a crime

To admit I'm still in love with you, after all this time

I'd rather let you touch my arm until you die

Seduce me with your charms until I'm drunk on them

Go home and drink in bed and never let myself be in love like that again.

Light a cigarette and think of you and walk away

Turning all the words around in my head I won't say

Because of all these triangles and squares

The memory we seem to share replays a distant love that plays my records on.

Never let myself love like that again

Never let myself love like that again.

To say the words I want to say to you would be a lie

By the time I get the courage I am drunk and you are tired

Alone in this basement where I will write these songs

Of things I'll never say to you again and you know why.

Never let myself love like that again

Never let myself love like that again

Never let myself love like that again

Never let myself love like that again

Never let myself love like that again

Never let myself love like that again.
