Lyrics
We stand outside my door, and I wonder what I'm waiting for
Your hands in your pockets, they should be holding mine instead
But the focus here is on your heart and what's going on inside your head
We've been in this play before - you in the role of the king and me, Madonna/whore
The plotline changes every time, but you're always on your throne
And the final scene stays the same, the girl ends up alone
You say you love me, you say you miss me when I'm not there
You know me and I know you better than anyone, anywhere
You love my puppy dog eyes and the sweet taste of my lips
But you don't want to take it further than this
No you don't want to take it further than this
When we fight, we should be mad, yet we seem to love being together any way we can
Can't you see that all the pieces fit just right?
Every last one in its place and the glue to keep it tight
You say you love me, you say you miss me when I'm not there
You know me and I know you better than anyone, anywhere
You love my puppy dog eyes and the sweet taste of my lips
But you don't want to take it further than this
No you don't want to take it further than this
