Followed The Waves Lyrics
Melissa Auf Der Maur
Lyrics
Feel me I'm sneeking around again
Am I hanging around again
Can't you see
That my heart lies, my heart lies to you
I followed the waves to you
I can not see it through
My heart lies to you
You'll never have me true
I lie
I lie
Please don't
Please don't make a mess
An see me
See me slip again
Break my heart
Your cards are fake
You seal the deal
My heart lies, my heart lies to you
My heart lies, my heart lies to you
I followed the waves to you
I can not see it through
My heart lies to you
You'll never have me true
I followed the waves to you
Can't you see it through
My heart lies to you
I'll never stay with you
Between my fire sighs and my burning eyes
My heart burns wildly in his eyes
He's just a druken gambling man
Dealing with the hands of desire spend
Between my fire sighs and my burning eyes
My heart burns wildly in his eyes
He's just a drunken gambling man
Dealing with the hands of desire spend
I'm gonna shuffle his deck clean
I'm gonna shuffle his deck clean
Hey
Hey
I followed the waves to you
I can not see it through
My heart lies to you
You'll never have me true
You might find the size in my burning eyes
My heart burns wildly in his eyes
He's just a drunken gambling man
Dealing with the hands of desire spend
I'm gonna shuffle his deck clean
I'm gonna shuffle his deck clean
