Lyrics

I might run off at any given time
Don't leave no note, there ain't no reason to lie
Guess I haven't found what I'm looking for
Can't keep my hands to myself or my eyes off the door
Is it any wonder that I'm on to the next?
I'll be the first one to tell you and the last to forget
Don't let me drag you into this bitterness
Sometimes I don't even understand the half of it
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up too much
Too much, love
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up too much
Too much, love
Sometimes I can't stand to be apart
I walk around the city alone 'til it's dark
And if the sadness won't ever go away
I suppose I'll build it a home so it has a nice place to stay
Most of the time I don't mind the company
But God, I wish you would stay
Why do you have to leave?
Seems like we always want what we can't have
But that's just life, baby
You can't get it back
When there's no one to blame and nothing here to see
You don't call, I don't blame you
I don't even trust me
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up too much
Too much, love
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up
Don't work yourself up too much
Too much
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
(Don't work yourself up)
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
(Don't work yourself up)
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
(Don't work yourself up)
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
(Don't work yourself up)
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
(Don't work yourself up)
I wanna love you, but I don't know how
(Don't work yourself up)
