You Cost Me Too Much Lyrics
Gin Blossoms
I could fall asleep for you my girl but it's not enough
And the scenes of your last visit lie buried in the dust
If i don't fall in love with you my girl, please understand
I'll go find another county and leave it in the end
I've seen forty-seven pictures all with you upon the face
From the noise i'm making running is a secondary pace
From the scenes of your last visit i still feel it where we touched
Where you cost me too much
Oh the time i spent with you my girl was all in vain
Waiting out the rapids we can't escape the pain
If i fall in love with you my girl it'll never end
And the sky will likely open raining holocaust and zen
On the west side of the forest on a highway in the sun
Stands a pointless individual who knows his time has come
Though i know it's nothing funny
I'm still howling like a lush
'cause you cost me too much
It's the same in here
Nothing's changed yet my dear
Oh if i had known to know you well
Lock us up in a sinners hell for days
If i don't fall in love with you my girl, please understand
I'll go find another city and leave it in the end
If i run away with you my girl please try to see
I'll do all i can to please you
But i don't expect you'll be
On the highest roof around me where i'm feeling pretty dumb
I scan on the horizon for the other dumbshits as they come
I'm' growing older faster
Still howling like a lush
'cause you cost me too much
