Down in the basement, locked in my head

Are all of the words that I wish you had said

You're so impatient, asleep on my bed

Dreaming we left it and made love instead

But there's still some problems that I need to cure

So turn on the light babe, lets find where it hurts

Cause I love to love you, but I'm still unsure

And each time we fight babe, we're only making it worse

And you know, that I know, that you know

That I gave you more than I should

I guess that means love ain't always so good

The floorboards are creaking, the sun's going down

You're watching me speaking but won't make a sound

And fighting this feeling that we're falling through

The less that you offer, the more that I lose

So just throw me a bone babe, and show them my pain

Why do we suffer to hide from our shame

When it's not like we'll live like this ever again

So come now darling and try to just treat me the same

Cause I know, that you know, that I know

That I gave you more than I should

I guess that means love ain't always so good
