Lyrics Longing - Nick Anderson and The Skinny Lovers

She's scared that she might lose
Everything she's dreamed of
And she knew that love isn't easy
She seeks out an answer

Knowing of course
That longing for love leads to remorse
It's love that she has for the man
It's a pain that she understands

Passion sits next to love
She loves the songs in his blood

I can't stop for now love
I can't stop for now
I'm longing

I see the picture a lot more clear
And I'm not so sure I'd let it fall on you dear
But I'm hopelessly attached and too selfish to relapse
But that line of thinking takes me into the past

Passion sits next to love
She loves the songs in his blood

I can't stop for now love
I can't stop for now
I'm sorry, I'm longing

I gave it all I had and felt defeated by more
The lack of a friend, disappointed evermore
I can feel the trample of the hurt on my back
But they don't know

My hands are crippled drying out to the bone
And all I've got left is a mind too tired and collapsed
But I'm trying my best

Yeah I'm trying my best
But I'm longing
Yeah I'm trying my best
But I'm longing
