lyrics

thought you’d come around
come over to my side of town

thought I wouldn’t have to lose you now
thought we got somewhere

you don’t reach for me like you used to
sitting next to you in the living room

hot and heavy when I’m home alone
felt closer to you through the telephone

I think I might be at my end
not your girl and not your friend

such a fool for thinking you’d give in
and let me love you

I’ve only got myself to blame
for betting on a losing game

now you’re blooming with a thing for
the girl you met at the grocery store

I can’t close my hand around you love
I can’t close my hand around you love

watching you sleeping with your back to me
told myself to hold the memory

and I hoped the morning would never come
I can’t close my hands around you love
