Shady Business Lyrics

My hands and hair smell of smoke
My tongue of old black lust and jokes
Oh, noThat have been passed through liars
Lips on to this old weathered parchment
That has been torn to shredsThat had stated I was there for everything
That you needed me to, to hold onI know I didn't say enough
But I know you can't go forcing love
I know I shouldn't call you up
'Cause I'd look so desperate for your love, loveGot caught on calloused heels
Barefoot, undressed and such a mess
Unprepared for the next eventYou said you had to go
What happened to the boy you used to know?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, noBut I stated I was there for everything
That you needed me for, just hold on
Sick of how I tiptoe through problems
Lookin' for a way out and around themI know I didn't say enough
But I know you can't go forcing love
I know I shouldn't call you up

'Cause I'd look so desperate for your love, loveI broke someone's heart
Too bad that it happened to be my own
Come home, I can promise a better manWe can push things start
Start fresh, introduce ourselves again
And mend all these aching battle scarsI know I didn't say enough
But who says you can't go forcing love, love?I know I didn't say enough
But who says you can't go forcing love?
I know I shouldn't call you up
'Cause I'd look so desperate for your love, love
