I only met you today but I want to sleep next to you.
This is not my town, but we can sleep on a stranger's couch.
But if we fall in love then shame on us.
Things never end well when you're running from yourself.

I'll show you all the darkness and you'll say it's not my fault.
And I'll believe you for a night, but that is all.
But if we fall in love, there'll be a curse on us.
Things never end well when you're running from yourself.

If I could do it over I'd turn right on that spot
Cause I know now what that night caused.
When we fell in love there was a curse on us
Things never end well when you're running from yourself.

I am not a river, but I cry dirty tears
And I will cry them until the Thames runs dry.
