I know that you think you’re good for me
I know you think I’m good for you
But what I know and what I think you see
Is that there’s nothing we can do
But you are like a drug to me
and I seem to feed your jones
And when I give in and I run to you,
I get the guilt the addict owns

So here we are again
It’s the same old place we’ve been
And I see no trouble coming
But I know troubles on the way
Because I fell into the pattern
And in the pattern I will stay

The gambler has been running like
his life is on the line
Could it have been the women
or the wager or the wine
I remember thinking clearly there
but for the grace go I
But it occurred to me
the only grace I see is a little
something in my eye

So here we are again
It’s the same old place we’ve been
And I see no trouble coming
But I know troubles on the way
Because I feel into a pattern
And in the pattern I will stay

I swear that I think I’m over you
I swear I’ll never be
I swear I don’t believe a word
that’s coming out of me
I swore you were a fever once;
I’ve sworn love north and south
I’ve sworn so much the soap is gone,
Dissolving in my mouth
