And I’ll be making the most of it while I can stay in the palm of your hand
But recently I’ve seen more mornings than I should’ve done
And ignored all of the warnings ‘bout feeling anything for anyone, anyone
‘Cause it would give me so much pleasure
To let you let me down forever
‘Cause I can’t seem to drag myself away
And though I know I could do better
Just one word brings us back together
‘Cause baby baby baby I love the way you use my name
I know I’ve set myself up for an irreparable loss
And I’ll be counting the cost of it in my head ‘til I’m emotionally dead
It seems to be that I, I can never quite be satisfied
With what’s sitting right in front of me - I could be so good if I tried, if I tried
‘Cause it would give me so much pleasure
To let you let me down forever
‘Cause I can’t seem to drag myself away
And though I know I could do better
Just one word brings us back together
‘Cause baby baby baby I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
It’s something that I can’t explain
I love the way you use my name
‘Cause it would give me so much pleasure
To let you let me down forever
‘Cause I can’t seem to drag myself away
And though I know I could do better
Just one word brings us back together
‘Cause baby baby baby I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
I love the way you use my name
