Verse

 Oh I've been going through a hGell of a time

 Making sense of all that Emyou left behind C

 When I arrange it into Dcolumns and lines

 I always think it's adding Emup, but it never does C

 So in the morning maybe GI'll be alright

 And through the day I'll prepEmare for the fight C

 With a fever on a SDaturday night

 Cause this is giving me the sEmhakes and butterfClies, oh

Verse

And there's a scene I will always replay

At the moment when my hand touched your face

I could see your eyes turning away

But I've been standing my ground with you babe

Bridge1

And if you don't stop running you can never breathe

When everything you want is everything you see

But when it comes to decision baby, him or me

Well I hope you can fill the need

Chorus

What made you an alley cat scratching me?

You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth

And run off to where your next big meal could be

What made you an alley cat scratching me?

You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth

And run off because you must be tired of me

Run off because you must be tired of me

Verse

And now I fall in love with somebody everyday

As they step aside when I'm walking by, or smile at something I say

But I promised you it would never get in the way

Of stability but the joke's on me, cause you were the one who got carried away

Oh, you got carried away

Well he carried you away

Carried you away

Carried you away

Carried you away
