Bosco

I love you more than any man, but something's getting in the way
I do you harm because I can for the second time today
Victims we are not of happenstance, but you're a victim all the same
Stuck inside a circumstance with your confusion and your blame.

[Chorus:]
And when I get drunk, you take me home and keep me safe from harm
When I get drunk, you take me home.

I ask you for another second chance, but then I drink it all away
And I get bellicose when you react full of frustration and dismay
I was so delicate when we began, so tender when I spoke your name
But now I'm nothing but a partisan to my compulsion and my shame.

[Chorus]

You know, I'm grateful, I appreciate
But in fact, it's baleful how I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry.

I love you more than any man, but I seem to lay it all to waste
I do you harm because I can with a joke in questionable taste
I've such duplicity at my command, so I keep on lying to your face
Then I run away to wonderland, and disappear without trace.

[Chorus]

You know, I'm grateful, I appreciate
But, in fact, it's baleful how I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you dry
How I suck you.
