The One That Gets Away

Текст песни Bury the Wren - The One That Gets Away

I only know two things
But only one of em's true
First, I can't live with ya
Second, I can't shoot you
Nobody ever made
My blood temperature rise
Pacin' back and forth like
This is the last time

So I clean my gun
On this velvet couch
With more cigarette holes than
I can even count
And then I listen to the clock go
Tick tock tick
And then the sun comes up and
The door creaks slowly open
Like you're hopin'

Slow motion slow
Back out and go
Slide your key across the floor
Don't make it worse
Love in reverse
I don't wanna blow your mind
Even so, I may... I'm
The one that gets away

I know I don't got much
At least I brought it home
But you were generous too with
The number of your phone
And now you're out all night like
Tick tock tick, and you don't come home
Until the sun comes up and
The door creaks slowly open
Like you're hopin'

Slow motion slow
Back out and go
Slide your key across the floor
Don't make it worse
Love in reverse
I don't wanna blow your mind
Even so, I may... I'm
The one that gets away

And then the sun comes up
And the door creaks slowly open
Like you're hopin'

Now you're out all night like
Tick tock tick, tick tock tick
And you don't come home
Until the door creaks slowly open
Like you're hopin'

So I clean my gun
On this velvet couch
(Tick tock tock, tick)

Slow motion slow
Back out and go
Slide your key across the floor
Don't make it worse
Love in reverse
I don't wanna blow your mind
Even so, I may... I'm
The one that gets away
