AMANDA SOMERVILLE - Moth lyrics

rate me

I blame it all on you for feeling this way

You and your wily ways

'Cause I don't stand to gain a thing

I give you all the room you need

I fill in the gaps between your lines

But there's nothing there to read

And I can't stop now

I can't give in

Did you take all that you wanted?

Go round and round

The ice is thin

Have you no mercy?

<i>[Chorus:]</i>

It's getting awfully hot in here

I race for an escape

You're radiating all I fear

I know I'll burn if I get too near

But I can't pull away, though I've nothing to gain

I'm a moth to your flame

I know you've had your suspicions

Because I've given you reason to doubt

That my words are without meaning

I'd break you out of your cell

I would slip you the key under watchful eyes

But you pretend not to see

And I see you smile

I feel you stare

The mercury keeps rising

You start this fire

Send up your flares

Then leave me hanging

<i>[Chorus]</i>

Grant me some relief, be it only one kiss

Stave off my yearning with the grace of your lips

Give me some reprieve, let it be my demise

Have I misread all of your seemingly tell-tale signs

And your promising rhymes?

<i>[Chorus]</i>

You burn my wings and...

I blame it all on you for feeling this way

You and your wily ways

'Cause I'm just a moth to your flame
