Almost crimes

To say the things I want to say to you would be a crime 
To admit I'm still in love with you, after all this time 
I'd rather let you touch my arm until you die 
Seduce me with your charms until I'm drunk on them, go home and drink in bed and never let myself be loved like that again

Light a cigarette and think of you and walk away 
Turning all the words running in my head I won't say 
Because of all these triangles and squares the memory we seem to share replays a distant love that plays my records wrong 

Never let myself love like that again 
Never let myself love like that again 

To say the words I want to say to you would be a lie 
By the time I get the courage I am drunk and you are tired 
Alone in this basement where I will write these songs 
Of things I'll never say to you again and you know why 

Never let myself love like that again 
Never let myself love like that again 
Never let myself love like that again 
Never let myself love like that again
