Nicotine Love - Jewel

Go ahead touch me like that

The way you pull my head back

Go ahead, breathe me in

Bite me 'til I bleed

This love is like barbed wire running through my veins

Nicotine love

Go ahead hurt me like that

I’ve been hurt before

I won’t be fixed again

I’m not afraid to sweat

'Cause I like the pain and it’s familiar to me

And more gentle than most men will ever be

Nicotine love

But don’t get me wrong

I don’t want a friend

Just need you here to help me satisfy this childish sin

This insatiable desire

Hunger so deep

You will melt on my tongue

And I will put you to sleep

And I’ll press you like petals

'Til you’re fragile and thin

Then I’ll breathe you in

Nicotine love

It hurts just right

Not to know your name

But feel that body beneath me

Struggling as if in some strange way it were the same

As when I was with him

Gonna make you promise

That you’ll peek

Then I will crush your little heart

'Cause I can

Because it happened to me

Nicotine love

So come here, baby

My honey, cutie-pie

Let my fingers swim like pale fish through your hair

So I can tell you that I love you

You’ll say, «Never let me go»

You wonder why it is I’m here

But patience and soon it will be all too clear

Nicotine love

But don’t get me wrong

I don’t want a friend

Just need you here to help me satisfy this childish sin

This insatiable desire

Hunger so deep

You will melt on my tongue

And I will put you to sleep

And I’ll press you like petals

'Til you’re fragile and thin

Then I’ll breathe you in

Nicotine love

So go ahead touch me like that

The end is drawing near

Go ahead hurt me that way

You don’t even know enough to fear

You don’t know how true it is when you say

My kisses are sweet as death

But soon you’ll have no more options

That’s all you’ll have left

'Cause this love is like barbed wire

I’m electric and so alone

So come here, stray cat

I’m gonna take you home

And then I will press you like petals

'Til you’re fragile and thin

Then I’ll breathe you in

Then I’ll breathe you in

Nicotine love
