Great Romances Of The 20th Century   





September never stays this cold  

where I come from  

And you know  

I’m not one for complaining,  

But I love the way you’d roll  

excuses off the tip of your tongue  

as I slowly fall apart  

(slowly, quietly, slowly)  

fall apart  

 

This won’t mean a thing come tomorrow  

and that’s exactly how I’ll make it seem  

Cause I'm still not sleeping,  

thinking I’ve crawled home from worse than this  

 

So please, please  

(please)  

I’m running out of sympathy  

(I'm running out of sympathy!)  

and I never said I’d take this  

I never said I'd take this lying down  

 

She says  

 come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”  

She says  

 come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”  

 

(I never said I’d take this lying down, let's just get this over with, 

and I've crawled home from worse than this)  

She says  

 come on, come on, let’s just get this over with”  

She says  

 come on, come on..   

 

You always come close but this never comes easy,  

I still know everything  

You always come close but this never comes easy,  

I still know everything  

You always come close but this never comes easy,  

I still know everything  

You always come so close...  

I still know everything, I still know everything, I still know...  

 

You always come close but this never comes easy  

You always come close but this never comes easy  

You always come... you come in close  

 

I never said I'd take this lying down  

I never said I'd take this lying down  

I never said I'd take this lying down  

but I've crawled home from worse than this  

 

If it's not keeping you up nights  

then what’s the point  

then what’s the point  

then what’s the point  

then what’s the point  

 

I'm in your room  

now is this turning you on  

am I turning you on?  

 

I'm in your room  

are you turned on?  

 

I'm on the corner of your bed,  

I'm practically naked,  

are you turned on,  

are you turned on?
