She leaves my heart, 11 degrees
I see her eyes
, reflecting m

It’s like she
puts love, to
the back of he
r mind
Then rips it o
ut again, and
she’s back at
mine
[Chorus]
She said
“Oxygen’s over
rated, I don’t
even need to
breathe”
She’s got a ta

that never sl
eeps

I loved you th

now
So make me laugh, for an hour
Then rip me of

And leave a ta
