Reinventing Robert Cohn

Like a thunderstorm that pulls you deep into the night,
she speaks to me in numbers and is gone when I open my eyes.

She wants more, you know I'll just forget it if you give me a chance.
One more time, I can't desire something if it just isn't there.

She's in my blood and like a fire inside me, consumes the air then leads me blindly,
she has my hopes and dreams and she's the one I see who screams, "go on, go on!"

She doesn't know who I am, I really want to tell her that this can't go on tonight,
she's in my blood, in like a broken glass, you take one last breath and she'll leave you bruised tonight.

She was calling but I kept waiting by the phone.
She looked at me with her left eye closed ans said "you don't know, if you don't know, then they won't know."

She is temptation and temptation has its fangs in me,
I never thought that I could live a lie so painfully,
well she was blind and she's taking her time,
she goes on and on, she takes a hold and never lets you go
