My hands and hair smell of smokenMy tongue of old, black lust and jokesnOh nonThat have been passed through liarsnLips on to this old, weathered parchmentnThat has been torn to shredsnnThat had statednI was there for everythingnThat you needed me to, to hold onnn[Chorus]nI know I didn't say enoughnBut I know you can't go forcing lovenI know I shouldn't call you upn'Cause I look so desperate for your lovennGot caught on calloused heelsnBarefoot, undressed, and such a messnUnprepared for the next eventnYou said you had to gonWhat happened to the boy you used to know?nOh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, nonnBut I statednI was there for everythingnThat you needed me fornJust hold onnSick of how I tip-toe through problemsnLooking for a way outnAnd around themnn[Chorus]nnI broke someone's heartnToo bad that it happened to be my ownnCome homenI can promise a better mannWe can push thingsnStart, start fresh, introduce ourselves againnAnd mend all these aching battle scarsnnI know I didn't say enoughnBut who says you can't go forcing love?nn[Chorus]
