Dying | Lyrics
I've been dying for youJust the way you wanted me toWhen I said I wasn't cryingI confessed that I was lyingBaby, I've been dyingOh
I swallowed up my feelingsI'm a shipwreck in a bottleI swore I wouldn't say itBut I'm breaking every promiseNow I'm drowningWithout you (without you)
Are we done for sure?Is it overboard if I tell you
That I've been dying for youJust the way you wanted me to?When I said I wasn't cryingI confessed that I was lyingBaby, I've been dyingOh
I've been dying for youJust the way you wanted me toWhen I said I wasn't cryingI confessed that I was lyingBaby, I've been dyingOh, for youOh, for you
I've been dying
