CAN’T STAY AWAY

I told my friends I’m done with you,

Swore this time I meant it too.

Made it halfway through the week,

Then you called and I came running back to you.

I know exactly how this goes,

We get too close, then let it blow.

I say I’m leaving, you say “stay,”

And somehow I’m still here the next day.

I know, I know,

This ain’t good for me.

But every time I try to go,

You’re right where I wanna be.

I can’t stay away, even when I know I should,

Every time I leave, I end up back where you stood.

Tell myself I’m done, but I never make it through,

I can’t stay away,

Guess I’m stuck on you.

I can’t stay away,

No matter what I do.

I can say I’m over you,

But I know that isn’t true.

You know exactly when to call,

Usually when I’m doing good.

One little “come see me”

And I’m driving through your neighborhood.

We don’t even have to talk,

You can read it on my face.

I know I should be going home,

But I keep finding reasons I should stay.

I know, I know,

This ain’t good for me.

But every time you get close,

You make it hard to leave.

I can’t stay away, even when I know I should,

Every time I leave, I end up back where you stood.

Tell myself I’m done, but I never make it through,

I can’t stay away,

Guess I’m stuck on you.

I can’t stay away,

No matter what I do.

I can say I’m over you,

But I know that isn’t true.

Maybe I like the way you ruin my plans,

Maybe I like when you reach for my hand.

Maybe I know this is never gonna change,

But if you want me tonight,

I’m already on my way.

I can’t stay away, even when I know I should,

Every time I leave, I end up back where you stood.

Tell myself I’m done, but I never make it through,

I can’t stay away,

Guess I’m stuck on you.

I can’t stay away,

No matter what I do.

I can say I’m over you,

But I know that isn’t true.

I can’t stay away…

Guess I’m stuck on you.
