lyrics

Don't you say sorry, again well for the millionth time
oh you know what I mean oh I've got no one to blame
except maybe myself and we both know how I'd love that well

Don't you let me oh don't you let me
don't you let me oh don't you let me
down, on my knees
oh girl the hell of it to ya how
oh am I ever gonna speak with you know
in a cloud of smoke and no fire starter to be found
I guess we'll go our own ways now

Don't you shrug me off again, well for the thousandth time
oh I know what you mean oh you've got no one to blame
except maybe yourself and we both know how you'd love that

Don't you let me oh don't you let me
don't you let me oh don't you let me
down, on my knees
oh girl the hell of it to ya how
oh am I ever gonna speak with you know
in a cloud of smoke and no fire starter to be found
I guess we'll go our own ways now

Oh down, on my knees
oh girl the hell of it to ya how
oh am I ever gonna speak with you know
in a cloud of smoke and no fire starter to be found
I guess we'll go our own ways now
own ways know
