The Mistress

[Verse 1]
I was thinking some day, I'd grow out of this phase
What a big mistake that was
Isn't love that we make, I'm caught up in this maze
Wish it haven't have begun
I'm too weak to leave
But God I can't stand myself no more
And she calls me angel
But that ain't the truth, you know, you know

[Pre-Chorus]
And even though it's wrong that I'm living such a lie
I just can't leave you alone
The more that we go on, this guilt just builds up inside
Still I can't leave you alone

[Chorus]
No I just can't leave my mistress
No I just can't leave my mistress
Why do you feel like something that I shouldn't hide
I just can't leave you alone

[Verse 2]
She wakes me with a kiss, some coffee in my bed
After I just crept in way after six
Smelling of your perfume, all in my bedroom
I don't understand why she don't say shit
Maybe she's weak, maybe I know
That's why I can't stand myself no more
She must be an angel
To know but never say, to see but look away

[Pre-Chorus]
And even though it's wrong that I'm living such a lie
I just can't leave you alone
The more that we go on, this guilt just builds up inside
Still I can't leave you alone

[Chorus]
No I just can't leave my mistress
No I just can't leave my mistress
So why do you feel like something that I shouldn't hide
I just can't leave you alone

[Bridge]
Girl I just can't, I just can't leave you alone
I just can't, I just can't leave you alone
I just can't, I just can't leave you alone
I just can't, I just can't leave you alone

[Chorus]
No I just can't leave my mistress
No I just can't leave my mistress
Why do you feel like something that I shouldn't hide
I just can't leave you alone
