Mobley - Selfsame lyrics
[Mobley - Selfsame lyrics]
Now I've done what you asked me
Will you stay?
Now I've done as you asked me
Can I stay here?
You know I never want to see
Never want to see you alone again
Because I never want to be
Never want to see me alone
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me
With your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow we hurt each other
For the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will
But you know you'll never move
From where you are
I was young and un-emptied unafraid
I was young and you bent me to your way here
I get the feeling that you're not feeling
That you've got me alone again
And if you're feeling that
I'm not feeling it, i'm not coming home
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me
With your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow we hurt each other
For the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will
But you know you'll never move
From where you are
She's a downhearted dancer
But she taught me a lesson
Because if we are the answer
Then you've asked the wrong question
Will you stay?
Now I've done as you asked me
Can I stay here?
You know I never want to see
Never want to see you alone again
Because I never want to be
Never want to see me alone
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me
With your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow we hurt each other
For the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will
But you know you'll never move
From where you are
I was young and un-emptied unafraid
I was young and you bent me to your way here
I get the feeling that you're not feeling
That you've got me alone again
And if you're feeling that
I'm not feeling it, i'm not coming home
I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me
With your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow we hurt each other
For the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will
But you know you'll never move
From where you are
She's a downhearted dancer
But she taught me a lesson
Because if we are the answer
Then you've asked the wrong question
