Every Time I Speak

I don't believe in true love
I am alone by nature
I did not want to let you in, no

So why does it feel so classic
Like some romantic story?
Now that you're underneath my skin

Every time I speak, I speak to you, oh yeah
Every time I reach, I reach out for you baby, oh yeah
Every time I breathe, I feel your heart beating next to mine
Is it real what I feel this time?

I am distracted often
Running to meet you somewhere
Hoping the flowers never die, oh

And then you leave me breathless
Rushing to look in the mirror
Surprised to see the face is mine, mine

Every time I speak, I speak to you, oh yeah
(I speak about you, I think about you)
Every time I reach, I reach out for you baby, oh yeah
(I'm reaching for you, I'm reaching for you)
Every time I breathe, I feel your heart beating next to mine
Is it real what I feel this time?

So what is wrong with me? I know I should be happy
I don't feel right in my own skin
I'm just waiting for this whole damn thing to end

And all I can think about is how I can just get out
Love is maddening, love is maddening
La, la la la, la la, la, la la la, la la

Every time I speak, I speak to you, oh yeah
(I speak about you, I think about you)
Every time I reach, I reach out for you baby, oh yeah
(I'm reaching for you, I'm reaching for you)
Every time I breathe, I feel your heart beating next to mine
Is it real what I feel this time?
