It's like the color of your skin (Ah)
The way that you smell when you walk in
That kiss we shared in the night (Ah)
A song that's never been sung
It's like the first time you get high
Your father's final words when he dies
I heard you came to town
Just passing through
But just like before
I couldn't get to you
I've never heard anything like that
The thought of seeing you makes me sad
And it always brings me back
I have to live with that
I can't live like that
I have to live with that
I can't live like that
Like the look of your face in the dark
The sound of you crying breaks my heart
Like the first time you get high
Your father's final words when he dies
I heard you came to town
Just passing through
But just like before
I couldn't get to you
I've never heard anything like that
The thought of seeing you makes me sad
And it always brings me back
I have to live with that
I can't live like that
I have to live with that
I can't live like that
It's like the color of your skin
The way that you smell when you walk in
Like the look of your face in the dark
The sound of you crying breaks my heart
Like the first time you get high
Your father's final words when he dies
