Lyrics

9 LIVES

How many times can I say, "I'm sorry"?
How many times will you take me back?
'Cause part of me dies when you say, "Don't worry"
'Cause I know inside that you're keeping track

You're not sleeping on my couch, you're not gonna do this now
Come to bed, take a sec, you don't mean what you said
Maybe there's an easy fix, maybe I'm a counterfeit
I will do what you want anytime, any cost

'Cause I know we've been here before
But I think the ending is different

How many times can I say, "I'm sorry"?
How many times will you take me back?
'Cause part of me dies when you say, "Don't worry"
'Cause I know inside that you're keeping track
If I'm what you want and everything I do wrong
Write out the pros and cons, 'til you cross me off
How many times can I play dumb?
You gave me nine lives, now I'm down to one

Somewhere there's a line you draw somewhere in the sand
Know I'm gonna cross it, but I just don't know when
'Cause I can tell you're keeping score
And I don't think that I've been winning

How many times can I say, "I'm sorry"?
How many times will you take me back?
'Cause part of me dies when you say, "Don't worry"
'Cause I know inside that you're keeping track
If I'm what you want and everything I do wrong
Write out the pros and cons, 'til you cross me off
How many times can I play dumb?
You gave me nine lives, now I'm down to one

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
