lyrics

Through a haze of Raw tobacco, I can see you
Sifting sensually through the folds of his Venetian hair
Come on, don't stare
Into a sea of incandescent phones and groaning bones
I will try to disappear

You're running your hand through his hair
I'm sat right here, but baby, you just don't care
As he shuts the door behind you
I'll try and I try, I just can't let it go
Let it go

What did I do?
How did I let love fall away?
Was it the irritating way I begged to stay?
Or that I put the whole thing down into a song?
So cruel and overlong

You're running your hand through his hair
I'm sat right here, but baby, you just don't care
As he lets the beads fall gently
I'll try and I try, I just can't let it go
Try and I try, I just can't let it go

You're running your hand through his hair
I'm sat right here, but baby, you just don't care
If I leave right now, you'll still be there
Behind the wheel, and darling, you're driving me to despair
As he slams the gate in my face
I know he'll kiss away your pain
I'll try and I try, I just can't let it go
I'll try and I try, I just can't let it go, no
Try and I try, I just can't let it go
