Song Description

The song was originally about a cheating partner that has turned cold to any affection, and there is an unspoken knowledge of the infidelity by both parties... But she will always forgive him even though she knows he is bad for her...

Lyrics

I've realised it's a long, long time
Since I, felt your touch
Too many half-promises
The dreams that tease me way too much
And through your lips of silken gold
These fantasies of love are spun
It makes me go insane, the pain
Your lies survive till you've had your fun

But baby I want you to stay
Please boy, don't throw this away
I think I can show you the way

Cos my heart wants to give you another chance
And another after that.
I was strong before I ever let you in,
Now I keep on running back.
This is crazy, torture, but I still can't let go.
And even though I know you're all these things that are bad for me,
I'll pretend that I don't.

According to the rules you see
It should be me that wants to leave your side
My friends are telling me I'm a fool,
It's cruel, but I think they might be right.
A calculating mind you need
To think of the things you've done to me
And even though you still deny,
Inside, you can't hide yourself from me

But please touch me just one more time,
To create the illusion you're mine,
I think I can trust you in time...

Cos my heart wants to give you another chance
And another after that.
I was strong before I ever let you in,
Now I keep on running back.
This is crazy, torture, but I still can't let go.
And even though I know you're all these things that are bad for me,
I'll pretend that I don't.


You know there's nothing I won't do.
To make you stay,
My soul bleeds for you?
The power is yours...

Cos my heart wants to give you another chance
And another after that.
I was strong before I ever let you in,
Now I keep on running back.
This is crazy, torture, but I still can't let go.
And even though I know you're all these things that are bad for me,
I'll pretend that I don't.
