Just give me a chance

She said as I packed my things

But I already did 4 times, don't you remember?

I won't blow it again

She said with her fingers crossed

But she forgot about the mirror behind her

I'm done with plastic promises

Please, don't tell me that we're fine

I got too much on my mind

Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe

'Cause we've lost too much to gain

We were dancing in the rain

Tell me what am I to do

With a double dose of you?

Of those of you

Her lips are the gun

And her tongue are the bullets

She could save a life

But she took mine away instead

We gave it our all

So don't call me a quitter, no!

And I've swear I've tried too many times before but

I'm done with plastic promises

Please don't tell me that we're fine

I got too much on my mind

Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe

'Cause we've lost too much to gain

We were dancing in the rain

Tell me what am I to do

With a double dose

With a double dose of you?

Don't try to defy or even make an attempt

My blinders are off and I am runnin' again from you

Am I ok? Am I ok? I know I'll be ok again

Are you ready?

So here we go, I know

You'd kill for everything to stay the same

In vain, we had to go our separate ways

When you proved to me that you would never change

I finally woke up and exclaimed

That I'm done with these plastic promises

Please don't tell me that we're fine ('cause we're not)

I got too much on my mind

Isn't this too plain to see? Maybe

'Cause we've lost too much to gain

We were dancing in the rain

Tell me what am I to do

With a double dose of

With a double dose of you?
