Ben Gertner - You Don't Really Want To Be With Me Lyrics

I smell like smoke and sweet suede, but I would really like to see you today
(You say you hate it when I get this way)
You say that I'm no good for you, and more than anything, I know that's true
(So tell me, would I lie to you?)
But I can't stop my beating heart, I wanna keep us from being apart
(Tell me what you want me to do)
If you let me, I'll get clean, and I'll be better for both you and for me
(I'd do anything for you)

Rearrange the lines I passed while I was looking for somebody new
Did not think that I would ever find you
Tell me that you want me, too

You said you heard my voice from the street
(Are you waking up to a dream?)
I was busy singing songs about you and me
(Is everything as it seems?)
I hope you like the way they sounded
(Are we all just getting dead?)
I hope you sleep with me in your head
(I don't have another way to say it instead)

Rearrange the lines I passed while I was looking for somebody new
Did not think that I would ever find you
Tell me that you want me, too

But you don't really wanna be with me
No, you don't wanna really be with me
I promise this is the last hit that I'll take
Would you tell me, would you tell me if we're gonna make it
I'll be better, yeah, I'll be better
I promise I'll be better
I will always, I will always wanna wear your sweater
