Left Behind Songtext
von Trade Secrets

Measure for measure, trading the blows
A clinch in the ring before we both let go
Pleasure for pleasure, we make our demands
Takes us to places we don′t understand
Body to body, our language laid low
The less we speak, the more we know


I'm not gonna let you take what′s mine
I won't be the one you left behind
I don't need another reason why
I won′t be the one who says goodbye
Sail through the danger, now shipwrecked alone
No star in the night to guide us both back home
Stranger to stranger, longing to belong
We traded ourselves for something half as strong
Hour to hour, the chasm it grows
The less you say, the more I know

I′m not gonna let you take what's mine
I won′t be the one you left behind
I don't need another reason why
I won′t be the one who says goodbye

And we kick and we scream as we tear at the seams
But the words won't come out ′cause there's no room for doubt
And that we've come to the end, no more road ′round the bend
Every trap has been laid, there′s no way we get out of this

Oh baby, I'm not gonna let you take what′s mine
I won't be the one you left behind
I don′t need another reason why
I won't be the one who says goodbye
I′m not gonna let you take what's mine
I won't be the one you left behind
