Lyrics
Found another repeat,
told me she was lonely,
she didn’t want to know me…
I guess I’m on my own again.
Look inside me deeply, your eyes revealed your mystery. Forget about your history.
Will I see you again?
This hotel room is empty, just me and my pretension, time to find redemption
so I can breathe again.
Repeat takes a hold of me;
Swears she has control of me,
But she worships every gift I bring.
Remembers every song I sing.
Hangs on every word I say.
Dramatic romancer.
Such a great dancer, that she dances away…
Found another repeat,
told me she was lonely,
she didn’t want to know me,
but she speaks to me only…
She never lets me win.
Looks inside me deeply, tells me when I’m lying, tells me when I’m trying too hard to force a grin.
When my soul is empty, every once in a while, she makes me smile…
Lets me dream again.
Repeat takes a hold of me;
Swears she has control of me,
But she worships every gift I bring.
Remembers every song I sing.
Hangs on every word I say.
Dramatic romancer. (Like me)
Such a great dancer. (Like me)
Dramatic romancer. (Like me)
that she dances away… from me.
She dances away, she dances away, she dances away…
Repeat just told me, she’s so glad to know me, but she’s just too lonely to ever let me in.
Repeat just told me, she loves to hold me, and as she turns around coldly…
I lose another friend.
