Should have figured that you'd go back to New York Don't consider me when you run back to her You don't have to hide it, I know why you wait Said you needed space, I know better than that Mm-mm Could have fought for you, but I just let you leave Hurt too much to consider you didn't love me The mountains of Valais will weep through the night Driving down sunset's a terrible sight Mm-mm Left me and the ocean for your old flame Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay Can't quit this So damn wicked To leave California and me I imagine you holding her in your arms Laughing 'bout how I thought that you were the one I get so anxious and maybe I'm young The first sign of trouble and I bite my tongue Mm-mm Left me and the ocean for your old flame Holding back my tears, I couldn't make you stay Can't quit this So damn wicked To leave California and me

Will you let me come closer to you? I know that you're older, but what can I do? I leave in the morning, I'll forget that I am surely falling (ah-ah) Grew up in a case of fragile glass But hammer away, it's time to crash And as it shatters, let me shatter into you The soft candle glow The music so slow Your skin on my skin The room is spinning Nerve on my bone I'm shaking, oh, no I'm talking though, I shouldn't be I've lost all sensibility Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I've never been so fragile Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ha-ah-ah It's been a year and 40 days Since you picked me up and swept me away I wanted to run with you into the midnight sun with you Now I sit around and rust in rain Turn into dust as I just wait For someone to hold me like you did that night, I still remember The soft candle glow The music so slow Your skin on my skin The room kept spinning 'Round, I'm alone New town, on my own I'm missing you, I shouldn't be I've lost all sensibility Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh I've never been so fragile Fragile

One more kiss, wine stained lips I don't want to go to sleep yet Pale moonlight, misty eyes I'll allow myself to have him just tonight I hold on to every ounce of sin I know he don't love me quite like I love him I swear to myself as he leaves at dawn This will end 'til he haunts me again, mm... Rose perfume, low-lit room I'll pretend you'll stay forever Lay me down, ghostly sounds Haunt the hallways as he wraps me around And I hold on to every ounce of sin I know he don't love me quite like I love him I swear to myself as he leaves at dawn This will end, 'til he haunts me again

I won't pretend, I've been desolate I won't pretend, I've been blue It happened so quickly, one second it hit me I've fallen quite hard over you I won't pretend, I've been anxious Just like I've always been This time, it's sticking And time just stops ticking When I have my arms around you Four-leaf clovers and lucky dimes Coincidences and cosmic signs Have proved that I am quite naïve I'm falling fast, failing gravity And all that I see is serendipity Ran into you on the corner Of Ninety and Central Park West Oh, how it thrilled me, I thank the big city And, this, I will rarely confess In years when we're losing our memory The world's taken leaps over time I hope that you'll look at me like I'm still twenty-three Hope that you still be mine Four-leaf clovers and lucky dimes Coincidences and cosmic signs Have proved that I am quite naïve I'm falling fast, failing gravity I swear that, this time, it's serendipity Serendipity Serendipity

It always goes like this Could've predicted it I'm so naive to think you loved me for me Kissed as I ran off-stage Too old to play this game Guess you're still growing up at 30 Oh-oh Were you surprised by me when you took me home? When the glamour wore off Reduced to skin and bone I can't even tell who you want to know I'm a goddess on stage Human when we're alone You took a star to bed Woke up with me instead You must have felt so damn deceived When you made up a version of me that you thought you'd love But I am not your Aphrodite Oh-oh Were you surprised by me when you took me home? When the glamour wore off Reduced to skin and bone I can't even tell who you want to know I'm a goddess on stage Human when we're alone You took me for a fool You stole my youth You wanted this so much You watched me rise then killed my light And now you know I'm not your fucking goddess Ooh, oh I'm no goddess when I'm alone

Look at me I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud I can't understand I get misty just holding your hand Misty Walk my way And a thousand violins begin to play Or it might be the sound of your hello That music I hear I get misty the moment you're near Can't you see that you're leading me on? And it's just what I want you to do Don't you notice how hopelessly I'm lost? That's why I'm following you Following you On my own Would I wander through this wonderland alone? Never knowing my right foot from my left My hat from my glove I'm too misty and too much in love Too misty and too much in love
