I think I might be a fortune teller -
I read your face just like a letter.
The funny thing about forever -
Is that it comes with a side of never-never.
I can't buy into what you're selling -
And no, its not that I don't want it,
Believe me, I'd love to close my eyes,
Enjoy the ride,
But you reek of indecision tonight.
(I know, I know, I know...)
You're only gonna let me down,
When it comes to count down.
You're only gonna turn me out -
As I burn, you burn out.
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy,
Right when I think
We could be something -
You go and let me down, let me down, oh
I am too smart to let you in here,
But I'm just dumb enough to linger,
I wanna think that you'll be different,
Smoke and mirrors are so clever-clever.
I pretend that things aren't so bad
And what you say will actually happen,
I've been dying to open my eyes, see you try
Instead of always leaving me out to dry.
(I know, I know, I know...)
You're only gonna let me down,
When it comes to count down.
You're only gonna turn me out -
As I burn, you burn out.
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy,
Right when I think
We could be something -
You go and let me down, let me down, oh
I need you to be there when you say you're gonna be
I care too much and you care enough to leave
I want some place to rest my head without worrying
It's not fair, it's not fair,
It's not fair to me
'Cause I know by now
You're only gonna let me down,
When it comes to count down.
You're only gonna turn me out -
As I burn, you burn out.
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy,
Right when I think
We could be something -
You go and let me down, let me down
