when i can afford to lose

Singer:hoge, will

two years

three months

five days

i've been tryin' to climb this wall. two years

three months

five days

well

please don't let me fall. understand

my dear

when you come walkin' near

i want you back again

'cause i know that i can't win. it's not for me to choose. i'll take you back again

when i can afford to lose. i see your picture on my table

and your ghost is sleepin' in my bed. your goodbye still rattles and rattles and rattles around

like thunder through my head. so i'll have one more cigarette

and hope that soon i will forget

when you walked in. 'cause i know that i can't win. it's not for me to choose. i'll take you back again

when i can afford to lose. take you back again

when i can afford to lose. don't leave me hangin' on this borderline. the things i could do with a whisper from you could just blow your mind. and understand

my dear

when you come walkin' near

i want you back again

'cause i know that i can't win. it's not for me to choose. i'll take you back again

when i can afford to lose. take you back again

when i can afford to lose. i'll take you back again

when i can afford to lose.
