Yeah, you're a savvy now,
it's August up in Ithaca
We're driving fast, the windows down,
I'm so in love with you
You're leaning over, kiss my neck, boy,
you're the only one
When I met you, I was lost,
you showed me how to trust
Baby, you know
you're the only boy I've ever touched
I pray to God that in the end, yeah,
it'll still be us
Why do you have to go
and take a piece of my life
Cut me up with a knife?
Now I'm all yours, baby
Why'd you have to go
and make me feel so alive?
Now I'd rather die than to lose you, baby
It feels so good that it makes me sad
Oh, it terrifies me
If you leave one day
and you don't come back
Why do you have to go?
Now we're fighting
and I'm crying, laying on the floor
I never thought I'd hurt this much and,
still, I need you more
I'll do anything, but please
just don't walk out the door
You hold me close and tell me
that it's gonna be okay
The world goes quiet
when you kiss me or whisper my name
I'll forgive you every time just for another day
Why do you have to go
and take a piece of my life
Cut me up with a knife?
Now I'm all yours, baby
Why'd you have to go
and make me feel so alive?
Now I'd rather die than to lose you, baby
It feels so good that it makes me sad
Oh, it terrifies me
If you leave one day
and you don't come back
Why do you have to go?
Ooh
Boy, just kiss me like there's no tomorrow
Ooh
You could go through hell
and you know I'll follow
Why do you have to go
and take a piece of my life
Cut me up with a knife?
Now I'm all yours, baby
Why'd you have to go
and make me feel so alive?
Now I'd rather die than to lose you, baby
It feels so good that it makes me sad
Oh, it terrifies me
If you leave one day and you don't come back
Why do you have to go?
