"Watered Down" lyrics

I think you like me like you like your whiskey
After the ice melts, sippin' easy
Watered down
I think you want me like you want honesty
No bitter, all sweet
Watered down

Oh, but that's no way to love

When it's too strong, too brave
You feel like you gotta run away
When it's too bold, you don't like the taste
But that's how the best things are made, babe
Kinda like me, some things ain't meant to be
Watered down
Watered down

Oh, I can feel it, how you're lookin' at me
When I'm dreamin' out loud, you're wishin'
You could drown it out
You used to love me for my heart on fire
Yeah, you said it took you higher
But not now

'Cause it's too strong, too brave
And you feel like you gotta run away
When it's too bold, you don't like the taste
But that's how the best things are made, babe
Kinda like me, some things ain't meant to be
Watered down
Watered down

But I think you like me like you like your whiskey
Too bad you want me like you want honesty
Oh, 'cause that's no way to love

When it's too strong, too brave
You feel like you gotta run away
When it's too bold, you don't like the taste
But that's how the best things are made, babe
Kinda like me, some things ain't meant to be
Kinda like me, some things ain't meant to be
Watered down
(Watered down)
