Liz Phair – Sway lyrics
Don't stray
Don't ever go away
I shouldn't
You're much too smart for this
You know it gets the better of me
Sometimes when you and I collide
I fall into an ocean of you
Pull me out in time
Don't let me drown
Let me down
I say it's all because of you

And here I go
Losing my control
I'm practicing your name
So I can say it to your face
It doesn't seem right
To look you in the eye
Let all the things you mean to me
Come tumbling out my mouth
Indeed it's time
Tell me why you say it's infinitely true

Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know all about you

And there's no cure
And no way to be sure
Why everything's turned inside out
Instilling so much doubt
It makes me so tired
I feel so uninspired
My head is battling with my heart
My logic has been torn apart
And now it all turns sour
Come sweeten the every afternoon

Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know all about you (x2)

It's all because of you
It's all because of you

Now it all turns sour
Come sweeten the every afternoon
It's time, tell me why
You say it's infinitely true

Say you'll stay, don't come and go
Like you do
Sway my way
Yeah I need to know all about you (x2)

It's all because of you
It's all because of you
It's all because of you
