Just Before You Leave

(album: Can You Do Me Good? - 2002)

Does your appetite for novelty still burn?
And do you pick a fight just to feel the heat of his concern?
Do you still misbehave, then beg for his reprieve?
And do you love to feel his needy hands pulling at your sleeve?

Don't you always fall in love again
Just before you leave?
Don't you always fall in love again
Just before you leave?

Do you still storm away? Do you slap him just to see
If he hits you back or backs away, or panics just like me?

Don't you always fall in love again
Just before you leave?
Don't you always fall in love again
Just before you leave?

Don't you cry
'Cos you know that's the one thing he hates
Don't you try
To bend him until he breaks
Like you broke me

Do you still turn in a second into stone?
And do you pepper him with petty threats of letting him alone?

Don't you always fall in love again
Just before you leave?
Don't you always fall in love again
Just before you leave?
