back in your life

Rolling Stones

You smiled at me, I knew something was up
It was quicksilver hard to explain
You quoted some verse to me to show that you sparkled
I saw neurons go flash in my brain

It took quite a while
To figure out your style
Talking to you on the phone
It seems funny now
You can be close somehow
To someone that you don t really know
Yeah

What would it take to get back in your life?
I hate that I m losing a friend
I tried making you laugh
I tried making you cry
Is this how our story will end?

We had a few drinks
Never touched, only looked
We shared pictures, yours were better than mine
But there was a moment
We knew we were hooked
It was only a matter of time

But when the passion came
We broke the porcelain
Secrets fell soft in the night
I smell your skin and hair
In the dawn, you disappeared
And you never even wrote me a line
Yeah

What would it take to get back in your life?
I hate that I m losing a friend
I tried making you laugh
I tried making you cry
Is this how our story will end?
Yeah, is this how our love s gonna end?

Oh, what would it take to get back in your life?
It s deafening silence again
You see, the truth to be told
Is often served cold
Is this how our story will end?
Oh, I hate that I m losing a friend
Yeah
Come on, Ronnie
Oh, what would it take?
What would it take?
I must have said sorry, sorry a thousand times, yeah
Yeah, am I, am I trash on your floor?
Since you showed me the door
And I m still waiting
I m still waiting for you to write me just one little line
One little line, yeah
Hey, you vanished in the city s haze
Yeah, you fading out like crazy
And never, never, never left no goodbye
