the smell of familiar

Singer:big 10-4

there's venom on your tongue

silver linings

sugarcoating

ultimatums

and i swear i won't regret you

fingers crossed

when you're at a loss

you'll analyze your life story

take take that back while you're standing there

the frozen words stuck in mid air

and in your tracks i'll stop you still

'cause i still have got this love give

it's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion

it's the idea that i will feel brand new again

in a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar

she's the hand that reaches back to pull me over

and i am

dooh

you're obvious distaste

overshadows

understanding

your hands on your waist

and i swore i won't forget you

i close my eyes

when count to ten

it's you again

i said who am i kidding

take that back while you're standing there

these frozen words stuck in mid air

and in your tracks i'll stop you still

'cause i still have got this love to give

it's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion

it's the idea that i will feel brand new again

in a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar

she's the hand that reaches back to pull me over

and i am

dooh

take it back while you're standing there

these frozen words i catch in mid air

and if you've got this love to give

i can use your second wind

and i know you will do better

and i know you won't settle

it's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion

it's the idea that i can feel brand new again

in a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar

you're the hand that reaches back to pull me over

it's the perfect confusion or the realist illusion

you're the idea oh you're the idea

in a crowd of a million she's the smell of familiar

she's the hand that reaches back

i am over
