Person With a Past Lyrics

Looking in the mirror
What do you see
From another era
A face, babyA waste maybe
Of a chance never had
A history of
Romance gone badWho can be a lover?
How long can it last?
Anything but hover
Seems like moving too fastGoing undercover
With a person with a pastSeems like only yesterday
You were just a child
Until up irreversibly
All of this sadness piledMistakes when you were fighting
Your way out of your bag
Has loneliness moonlighting
Made of you a hagWho can be a lover?
How long can it last?

Anything but hover
Seems like moving too fastGoing undercover
With a person with a pastYou say you want to see me
My number you desire
You make it sound so easy
(Make it sound so easy)
Like slumbering in fireI'm offering a warning
(Offering a warning)
Where you can put your trust
And thank me in the morning
When ashes turn to dustWho can be a lover?
How long can it last?
Anything but hover
Seems like moving too fastGoing undercover
With a person with a past
(With a person with a past)With a past
With a past
With a past
...
