Thief

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
You're on New York timeOver here it's way past midnightI drank a bottle of wineSo I can sleep tonight in silenceYou see I've had no time to rest'Cause my suspicion's been out running usAnd there's no method, no medicineThat could cure a love like this'Cause all this time I've been asleepYou've been dancing with deceitLost in another worldAnd I have chosen to forgiveBut if the fool in you forgetsI'll take my love back like a thiefLike a thiefThey say I'm a one of a kindI'm like a goldrush running right through youWhen I burn, I could turn a world blindShake an ocean to the groundYou don't know how much you'll miss meI'm like a queen inside your kingdomAnd there's no king's men, no cavalryThat could ever get me backI'll be a thousand miles awayLeave you to your prayers to prayLost in another worldBut I have chosen to forgiveAnd if the fool in you forgetsI'll take my love back like a thiefLike a thief(Like a thief, boy, I will run)(Leaving what we have become)I'll take my love back like a thiefAnd maybe one day you will seeBaby, you held heaven
