Lyrics

[verse]
every day i look in the times
for the temperature in phoenix
the next page shows the bargains on airfare
and i think about how it would be if i up and left to see you
i think about how it would be if you cared

[chorus]
and you say that i know you
i know you
yeah, i know that you always took the easy way out
and you know me
i never could

[verse]
i close my eyes and i'm melting with you
in the dry heat of phoenix
but i can feel the silky sweet of your breath
and the real world is slipping away
but i make no move to stop it
'cause i can nearly taste the salt of your sweat

[chorus]
and you say that i know you
i know you
yeah, i know that you always took the easy way out
and you know me
i never could

[bridge]
how could you leave so quietly
with your memories on your back?
and who was i before you
you know, i've lost track...

[verse]
and i hope you're doing ok
out there in the sun
could you write and tell me how to turn my heart off
because i'm tired of thinking of you
when i should be sleeping
yeah, i think i've had enough

[chorus]
and you said that i'd know you, i'd know you
but i hoped that you wouldn't take the easy way out
'cause you knew me, oh, yeah you knew me
oh, you knew me, i never could...
