Unmade Bed

Look who's come back home again
Loser looking for his lucky break
This time he says he just needs a friend
Ain't on the run, he ain't on the take
Can you unlock this door babe
Will you just undo the chain
Will you take your time before you
Mix up love, his love and pain
Loneliness lays down his head
Wants to get you high, better take it now
A man like that is like an unmade bed
Stained eyes searching for another way out
Do you really even want this
Maybe you just don't care
All I know it takes just one kiss, baby
For you - He's never there
Hey I know it's kinda hard
And maybe this time it will never end
Hit-and-run lover back in your heart
All those answered prayers you should never have sent
Cuz now that you're in his arms, babe
Know that you're just in his way
Suckered by his fatal charm, oh girl
It's time... We get away
