Lyrics

LOST IN YOU

I woke up with the taste of trouble
Ashes burning in my mouth
Your name still hanging in the air like a ghost up from the south

Your heart’s like a knife in velvet
Soft to the touch, but it cuts right through
Now I’m drinking with my demons and every glass turns to you

I’m lost in you like a dog in the rain
Can’t find shelter
Can’t shake the pain
I took the fall
Thinking all along I knew the game
But I’m lost in you, baby
And I’m never gonna be the same

You played me like an old piano
Sticky keys and smoke-stained lies
Your love is like a shadow that fades when the morning arrives

But I keep chasing what I shouldn’t be chasing
Every broken road just leads me back
You’re the poison in my whiskey…you’re the train jumping off the track

I’m lost in you like a song gone wrong
Can’t find the beat
Can’t sing along
I knew the risks
But still I rolled the dice
Now I’m paying for you, baby
And its costing me twice the price

Midnight’s laughing in my ear
Your loving reminds me of all I fear
Still, there ain’t no sin that I wouldn’t do
If it meant that I’d have one more night with you…

I woke up with the taste of trouble
With a ringing dancing through my head
It took a minute or two to realize that I wasn’t dead

I’m lost in you like a dog in the rain
Can’t find shelter
Can’t shake the pain
I took the fall
Thinking all along I knew the game
But I’m lost in you, baby
And I’m never gonna be the same

I’m lost in you,
And I’m never gonna be the same
