0:34I'm never gonna catch you
0:37This is never gonna end
0:40Might as well be my lover
0:43If you don't wanna be my friend
0:46You're my badge
0:49Baby, I'm your scar
0:52Throwin' daggers at the camera
0:55Tryin' to hit me from afar
0:58Now if you ever come through
1:01Which I doubt you'll do
1:04I'll run away with you
1:09You only want me when you got someone
1:12You only want me when it's wrong
1:15Come out and just tell me
1:18What you've been thinkin' all along
1:21We could've talked all night
1:24Instead of wastin' time
1:27I could've solved your problems
1:30You could've helped me with mine
1:34Now if you ever come through
1:37Which I doubt you'll do
1:39I'll run away with you
1:45Ooh-ooh
1:51Ooh-ooh
1:57Ooh-ooh
2:03Ooh-ooh
2:09Admit that if you met me
2:11Tonight for the first time
2:14You'd never forget me
2:17We'd be livin' on the same dime
2:20It's not too late
2:23It's easy if you try
2:26Whatever his name is
2:29Just tell him goodbye
2:33And if you never come through
2:36Well, then you showed me why
2:37You should never make a good girl cry
2:44Oh, you and me
2:46Oh, how we love our little hide and seek
2:49Oh, how we love it, baby, you and me
2:52Oh, how we love our little hide and seek
2:55Oh, how we love it, baby, you and me
2:58Run for a kiss and turn the other cheek
3:01Ho-how you doin', honey? You and me
3:04Oh, how we love it when our will gets weak
3:08If we never get it right
3:10Meet you on the other side
3:13If we never get it right
3:16Meet you on the other side
3:19If we never get it right
3:22Meet you on the other side
3:25Meet you on the other side
3:28Meet you on the other side
3:31Meet you on the other side
3:34Meet you on the other side
3:37Meet you on the other side
3:40Meet you on the other side
3:43Meet you on the other side
