Back when I was an ocean afraid that it would sink

My heart was as scarred as a skating rink

Back before I knew not to trust what I think

You came along and pulled me back from the brink

Well you know we never talked

Talked about that

I was more like a tree and you were more like a cat

Curled up in my arms on a July day

Wind came along and I began to sway

Now I may not need you

But I've still got greed for you

See how my heart bleeds for you

How I tremble like a leaf for you

You can leave me hanging

Hanging anytime

You can leave me hanging

Hanging I don't mind

There's beauty in the taking

And the leaving behind

Everything is sweetness with you

And you know I don't mind

Well I like to think of myself as a servant of duty

But to tell you the truth I may be a slave to your beauty

You walk in the room and you're all I see

You're looking away but you're still pointing at me

They poured magnetic dust over the two of us

Then went and said we can only talk so much

Just say the word, I will do what I must

Even if there never comes a time for us

Now I may not need you

But I've still got greed for you

See how my heart bleeds for you

How I tremble like a leaf for you

You can leave me hanging

Hanging anytime

You can leave me hanging

Hanging I don't mind

There's beauty in the taking

And the leaving behind

Everything is sweetness with you

And you know I don't mind

The cruel switchblade of happiness

Shines in the summer rain

The cruel switchblade of happiness

When will I see you again?

The cruel switchblade of happiness

Shines in the summer rain

The cruel switchblade of happiness

When will I see you again?
