Handle

Sunshine feels like sugar down in Greenwich
I used to lay out words like I meant it
Back when I was seventeen
And anyone meant everything
I almost took all my love and spent it

Now I play the game without the gamble
I won the war although I've lost some battles
Sweat on skin and wool on bone
I give you time to be alone
'Cause I know I can be a lot to handle
To handle

I used to kiss like it was all that I could do
I'd only chase the lover slipping out of view
Back when I was seventeen
I recall the weight of things
I'd do it all again to get to you

Now I play the game without the gamble
I won the war although I've lost some battles
Sweat on skin and wool on bone
I give you time to be alone
'Cause I know I can be a lot to handle
