Well I always get my hopes up a palm's length too high
With every step I get closer, I'm still stuck one step behind
Yeah, but we're just too good at never getting our timing right
So for right now I'll have to keep putting my loving on standby...
'Cause as much as you lead, you know that I'll follow
If today you come running, I know that tomorrow
You could walk away from me in a second flat
But if I ever left you I'd always come back
'Cause I'm that kind of woman and you're that kind of man
It's a long lonesome circle of us coming and staying
And going our opposite ways
At least the quiet nights are easier than these sunny empty days
'Cause at least when I'm sleeping I can dream of you keeping me safe
Or what the Someday so far when I asked you you'd finally stay
'Cause as much as you lead, you know that I'll follow
If today you come running, I know that tomorrow
You could walk away from me in a second flat
But if I ever left you, I'd always come back
'Cause I'm that kind of woman and you're that kind of man
