Chemistry

Edie Carey


I had everything but that one thing 
That would make him come to life 
So I went searching in the corner of his eyes 
I can make a man or a monster 
If the chemistry's not right 

So I go creeping around these corners 
Thinking it's right around that bend 
But all these bends make a circle 
And nature won't let those end 
Maybe if I tried a little harder 
You might want me again 

Of all the stories I tell myself 
Please let this one be true 
Of all the stories I tell myself 
Please let this one be true 

It's got to be hiding in here somewhere 
Maybe in the curve of your spine 
God knows I've traveled that distance a thousand times 
Maybe if I run into your heart she might tell me why 

Of all the stories I tell myself 
Please let this one be true 
Of all the stories I tell myself 
Please let this one be true 

I swear I saw it 
There was something in your eyes 
So I've been waiting on you 
Waiting on you 
Your heart is on the table 
My hands are in the sky 
And I've been waiting on a storm 

Cuz I had everything but that one thing that 
Would make him come to life 
So I went searching in the corner of his eyes 
I can make a man or a monster if the chemistry's not right 
It's not right 

Of all the stories I tell myself 
Please let this one be true
