It"s not that I only loved her face
I needed her to be a bit deeper
With that I knew she was worth the chase
But in the end all she was was a blur
I needed time to think things through
You took my heart and you ripped it in two
But you"re only human for a while
So why spend it in denial?
You took my head and you turn it into rust
Mislead the pure; all I ever did was help you
Now all that"s done, and my heart returns to dust
It"s all because you do what you do
I thought I had it figured out this time
But it seems like I never really knew at all
I spotted you from across the room
Our eyes locked and I had to talk to you
I made my way across the floor
But by the time I got there you"d started to dance
You started to dance, so I took your hand
I led you down a road you"d never forget
It seems so right but it looks like I played the fool
And that I"ll always regret
I needed her to be a bit deeper
With that I knew she was worth the chase
But in the end all she was was a blur
I needed time to think things through
You took my heart and you ripped it in two
But you"re only human for a while
So why spend it in denial?
You took my head and you turn it into rust
Mislead the pure; all I ever did was help you
Now all that"s done, and my heart returns to dust
It"s all because you do what you do
I thought I had it figured out this time
But it seems like I never really knew at all

Our eyes locked and I had to talk to you
I made my way across the floor

You started to dance, so I took your hand
