"That's Not The Way" lyrics

That's Not The Way

Ask no questions
Leave no clues
Just close the door behind you
When you leave this place
You don't know my name

We'll, I'm lying low
But I'm running scared
There's a feeling here
I wasn't prepared for
Meeting you
Honey, it seems so strange

No, no, no
That's not the way it's supposed to be
No, you're not supposed to get to me
Oh, I close my eyes
And I don't want to
Miss this dream
This dream

I've always played
Hard to get
Now I want you to go
But don't leave yet
There's a lot of lonely
Just outside my door

I want to go
Want to hide
I want your love
And I don't know why
Playing hard to get
Just doesn't work anymore

No, no, no
That's not the way it's supposed to be
No, you're not supposed to get to me
Oh, I say I love you
But I don't know what it means

No, no, no
That's not the way it's supposed to feel
No, so good
Too good to be real
Oh, I close my eyes
And I don't want to
Miss this dream

There always was an ending
Me, always me pretending
A heart couldn't break
And no one could take
My love alive
And here you are
Oh, why?
Oh, why?
Oh, why?

No, that's not the way it's supposed to be
No, you're not supposed to get to me
No, that's not the way it's supposed to feel
No, so good
Too good to be real
No, that's not the way it's supposed to be
No, you're not supposed to get to me
