Duke Ellington & His Orchestra - Three Little Words lyrics

I know what you're doing I see it all too clear I only taste the saline When I kiss away your tears You really had me going, wishing on a star But the black holes that surround you Are heavier by far I believed in your confusion You were so completely torn Well it must have been that yesterday Was the day that I was born There's not much to examine There's nothing left to hide You really can't be serious If you have to ask me why I say good-bye [Chorus] Cause I am barely breathing And I can't find the air I don't know who I'm kidding Imagining you care, and I could stand here Waiting a fool for another day But I don't suppose it's worth the price Worth the price, the price that I would pay Everyone keeps asking, what's it all about? I used to be so certain and I can't figure out What is this attraction? I only feel the pain There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame Will it ever change? [Chorus] But I'm thinking it over anyway I've come to find, I may never know Your changing mind, is it friend or foe? I rise above or sink below With every time you come and go Please don't, you come and go [Chorus]
