Sweet November movie - Off the Hook lyrics

rate me

Song by Barenaked Ladies<br /><br>

All around the room your things are placed<br>

And next to you he fills the space<br>

And so it seems your saving grace is only saving face<br>

The pictures of the two of you on holiday, on honeymoon<br>

You thought that he was wanting you,<br>

But he was only wanting you to<br>

Let him off the hook<br>

<br>

He was your imaginary friend,<br>

You were partners til the end<br>

Then something bends, and then it breaks, your worst mistake<br>

Accepting enemies on bended knees; a litany of tragedies,<br>

You're vexed, it seems you're hexed and after sex he expects<br>

You'll let him off the hook til<br>

Something that you heard while you were sleeping left you<br>

Shaken while he stirred. When you awaken you will<br>

Make him eat his words right off the hook<br>

Hook and line, every time<br>

<br>

The credit card receipts, the dirty sheets<br>

The souvenirs of men who cheat<br>

It all makes sense - with each offense<br>

You wanted to believe him<br>

He could get away with murder one,<br>

And you would clean the smoking gun<br>

With every crime, you bought each line,<br>

But not this time, you'll make him<br>

Eat his words cause<br>

<br>

Something that you heard while you were sleeping left you<br>

Shaken while he stirred<br>

When you awaken you will<br>

Make him eat his, make him eat his<br>

Words while he's alone, <br>

Cause you won't be around and<br>

From now on the phone stays off the hook<br>

Hook and line, everytime<br>

Hook and line, everytime<br>

<br>
