Lead Me On Lyrics[Verse 1]
If I kept a list of every single second that I've lived
There's no way in the world
That my list would line up with yours
If I saw your top ten seconds
I wouldn't make an honourable mention
But if you need a temporary love
I'd be number one
[Chorus]
And you'd lead me on
Make me need you
Waste my time
I'll run the race, but I'll never reach the finish line
[Verse 2]
Seconds are a bit specific
But even if the list was minutes
There's no doubt in my mind
That yours would not compare to mine
I know that you'll end it all
And make our seconds expendable
But don't you dare take my hand
I'll write this list again
[Chorus]
And you'd lead me on
Make me need you
Waste my time
I'll run the race, but I'll never reach the finish line
Lead me on
Tell me how much you like me
Take my life
I'll do my best
But there's no way that I'll win this fight
You might also like[Bridge]
Love me like you mean it
For the short time that we spent
And when you leave, do it quietly
So, I don't think that it's the end
We were never special
I was not too blind for that
You know passion doesn't make up
For the sympathy you lack
[Chorus]
And you'd lead me on
Make me need you
Waste my time
I'll run the race, but I'll never reach the finish line
Lead me on
Tell me how much you like me
Take my life
I'll do my best
But there's no way that I'll win this fight
[Outro]
Lead me on
Make me need you
Waste my time (Waste my time)
I'll run the race, but I'll never reach the finish line2
