"Linger" lyrics

"Linger"

If you
If you could return
Don't let it burn
Don't let it fade
I'm sure I'll not be rude
But it's just your attitude
Is tearing me apart
Is brooding everyday

I swore
Swore I would be true
But honey, so did you
So why were you holding ahead
Was that the way we stepped
Were you lying all the time?
Was it just a game to you?

And I mean it so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to
Do you have to
Do you have to let it linger?
Oh I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could ever go wrong
But I was wrong
I was wrong

If you
If you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn't be so confused
And I wouldn't feel so used
But you always really knew
I just want to be with you

And I mean it so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to
Do you have to
Do you have to let it linger?

And I mean it so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
Do you have to
Do you have to
Do you have to let it linger?
