Turning Tables / Someone Like You Songtext

von Peter Hollens

Close enough to start a war
All that I have is on the floor
God only knows what we're fighting for
All that I say, you always say more

I can't keep up with your turning tables
Under your thumb, I can't breathe

So I won't let you close enough to hurt me
No, I won't ask you, you to just desert me
I can't give you, what you think you gave me
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables
To turning tables

Under haunted skies I see you
Where love is lost, your ghost is found
I've lived a hundred storms to leave you
As hard as you try,
No I will never be knocked down

I can't keep up with your turning tables
Under your thumb, I can't breathe
So I won't let you close enough to hurt me,
No I won't ask you, you to just desert me
I can't give you, what you think you gave me
It's time to say goodbye...

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I beg
I'll remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,

Never mind, I'll find someone like you (I won't let you close enough to hurt me)
I wish nothing but the best for you too (No, I won't ask you, you to just desert me)
Don't forget me, what you think you gave me
It's time to say goodbye to turning tables

Close enough to start a war... to turning tables
