Like Me That Way

from Wood + Wire by Chris von Sneidern

lyrics

LIKE ME THAT WAY C. von Sneidern

I am a fool
you may be right but then again
you may be wrong
and you just like me that way

Off for the night
lately the time has come around
now you're not here
my mind has wandered off what I had said:

I won't be afraid to stay here alone
Stay in the darkness of night at home
but home isn't what my heart had in mind tonight
I want to stay out as long as I can
walking back alone with my heart in hand
turning round looking for a place I'd love to light

I'll keep it cool
I'll play it straight for one more night
and I'll think of you
and you'll still like me that way

What good does it do?
If I feel this way, it's only true
but if I tell you
it never comes out the same way for two

Now it's a good time that I cross my heart and pray I never fail
But that was such a good time, and now I'm on my knees
and you cross your heart out with my knife
Guess I'm the fool...

Remember the rules
I may be outside them once again
I may be wrong
and I may just like it that way

I know the truth
brightly it shines upon my hands
idle sometimes
grip worsening on the matter at hand
working on callous and building up arms
Idling, waiting for this light to change for the better.
