Ben Harper
Don’t Let Me Get Away
I will try
To keep in check but I know from time to time
I will try to push you back to see if you will fight
If you'll still come home to me tonight
And I will try, to look for any flag that I might miss
I’ll worry sometimes about the way you kiss me goodnight, I'll wonder if I'm wrong or right
And I’ll get scared
And I will try to start a fight
And I will try, to blow it up and hand you all the blame
I'll tell myself to fuck it up first just in case
Tell myself anything in hopes to keep me safe
And I will push you, just to see how hard you're willing to push back
And none of it's okay, yeah, I know that
And if I could you know I'd take it back
So don't let me get away with it
Don't let me get away with it
Don't let me get away
And I’d much rather write a song about the color of your eyes
Or the way that smilе kills me, darling
Makes me losе all sense of time
Yeah I’d much rather write a song about the desert rain at night
Or those cliffs I thought were too steep, baby
Or the way you steal my breath, right out from underneath
So I will try
To keep in check but I know from time to time
I will try to push you back to see if you will fight
And I know that it's not right
So don’t let me get away with it
Don't let me get away with it
Don't let me get away
