Jewel - Nicotine Love lyrics

rate me

Go ahead touch me like that

The way you pull my hair back

Go ahead breathe me in

Bite me til I bleed

This love is like barbed wire running through my veins

Nicotine Love

Go ahead hurt me like that

I've been hurt before

I won't be fixed again

I'm not afraid to sweat

Cause I like the pain and it's familiar to me

And more gentle than most men will ever be

Nicotine Love

*But don't get me wrong

I don't want a friend

Just need you here to help me satsify this childish sin

This insatiable desire, this hunger so deep

You will melt on my tongue

And I will put you to sleep

And I will press you like petals

Til you're fragile and bent

And I'll rid you of...

Nicotine Love

It hurts just right

Not to know your name

But feel that body beneath me

Struggling as though it was somehow sane

As when I was with him

Gonna make you promise to me

Than I will crush your heart

Cause I can't

Because it happened to me

Nicotine Love

So come here baby

My honey, cutie-pie

Let my fingers swim like pale fish through your hair

So I can tell you that I love you

Your safe, never let me go

You wonder why it I'm here

With patience, soon it'll be all too clear

Nicotine Love

*But don't get me wrong...

So go ahead touch me like that

The end is drawing near

Go ahead hurt me that way

You don't even know enough to fear

You don't know how true it is when you say

My kisses are sweet as death

But soon you'll have no more options

It's all you have left

Love is like barbed wire

I'm electric and so alone

So come here stray cat

I'm gonna take you home

I'm gonna press you like petals

Til you're fragile and bent

And I'll...

Well I'll...

Nicotine Love
