just before you leave

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?
