"Replacements (Extended Version)"
(feat. La Roux)

Growing up, I would refuse to admit I might've had a type
But every new encounter would never quite amount to my appetite
And now I don't know how I should go about it
I don't think that I can pretend
That something about you won't keep me wanting 'til the very end
Very end

Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
And now I'm just so confused
I feel lost watching the news
I've been running out of juice
I don't want to have to choose

Settle for less, I just can't find a woman to compare to you
It's been seven years, and you're still the one I feel I belong to
Tried so hard to get you out of my head
Oh, I wish you had a sister instead
I keep searching in my dreams to find a substitute

Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
And now I'm just so confused
I feel lost watching the news
I've been running out of juice
I don't want to have to choose

And I'm losing my mind 'cause I feel I've been trying
Trying for so long, trying for so long, whoa
And I'm running out of time 'cause I feel we've been trying
We've been trying for so long, trying for so long, whoa

Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
And time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
And time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you

(And it's time to move on)
Time again I find replacements, but they still feel like you
(And it's time to move on)
Time again I find replacements
(And if they're someone new) but they still feel like you
(And it's time to move on)
