Small Mercies

It's been three seasons since I condoned to you
It's hard to tell someone you love that you actually you
You used to find it tempting, now you're looking quite upset
I'd like to take you with me, but I think it's dangerous
You say I'm crazy, I'm acting so upset
You promised me your kisses without saying any words
You've ended up behind me, and you're trying to undress
My body tells me lies like I'm not here to impress

You're looking so handsome, darling boy
Why do I get the feeling you're gonna cut your own back
So handsome, darling boy
Why do I get the feeling you're gonna cut your own back

I feel sorry for all the other girls
I sit down in your lap and sink into your world
My mind's distracted, I cannot get much done
Did I forget to mention I'm having all the fun
You beg for small mercies, a victim of my heart
If only you had seen it, the potential from the start
I run around in circles so your feet were tied in knots
You're dreaming of the freedom, but my loving hits the spot

You're looking so handsome, darling boy
Why do I get the feeling you're gonna cut your own back
So handsome, darling boy
Why do I get the feeling you're gonna cut your own back
So handsome, darling boy
