Oh well, hello there.
Aren't you a sexy little thing,
Miss, it's just that straying leads to death on the rocks.
I'll risk the weathering and let 'em tether me against the mast
To hear your songs and I'll stay strong.
Are you some sort of siren
Or just the siren on the ambulance to steal my skin
Since I've never really taken care of myself
I've got one sad story that I'm doomed to retell
So if it's the right time for the the wrong decision
Maybe I don't care if you're the temptress or the rescue mission
Wait just a minute,
You're making the same mistakes as she did.
And darlin' it's hard to resist you but it's harder to walk away
I know your secrets,
A subtle brush against the skin
My god your finger tips are breaking me down
I've braved the tempests why's it hard to brave the temptress?
After all, she's here to steal my skin
Since I've never really taken care of myself
I've got one sad story that I'm doomed to retell
So if it's the right time for the the wrong decision
Maybe I don't care if you're the temptress or the rescue mission
Wait just a minute,
You're making the same mistakes as she did.
And darlin' it's hard to resist you but it's harder to walk away from 8 years of love
So take those pretty eyeballs
'Cause I've got a pair where I feel safe
And maybe I'll come to regret this but it's something I just can't shake
And I'm a man but I'm afraid
That I've got time, that it's not too late
For me to fall in love again and be okay.
So baby I'm the man you sought to break,
Your plane's on time you best not be late
If you had stayed I don't know what I could do to stop from sinking
Wait just a minute,
You're making the same mistakes as she did.
And darlin' it's hard to resist you but it's harder to walk away from 8 years of love
So take those pretty eyeballs
'Cause I've got a pair where I feel safe
And maybe I'll come to regret this but it's something I just can't shake
