Rules Of Attraction - Joe Brooks

No I don’t know much

But the one thing I do

Is that love

Oh, love’s heard all touched

Her jealous roots

And you’re the flower

In a bed we’re born to lose

Oh, why (x3)

I need exception

From the rules of attraction

Cuz I really, really, really can’t accept them

You’re so above me in the measure of beauty

And I don’t think it’s fair that that should stop me

Oh, I know you’ll never see

The heart that beats

Underneath

That’s why I need exception

From the rules of attraction

When it comes to you, yeah

Oh, yeah

Lies feed from lust

And it’s poisonous fruit

And baby you, oh

You can’t help but love

It’s shallow in juice

There’s so much you’ll never see

Cuz you can’t see through

Oh, why (x3)

I need exception

From the rules of attraction, yeah

Cuz I really, really, really can’t accept them

You’re so above me in the measure of beauty

And I don’t think it’s fair that that should stop me

Oh, I know you’ll never see

The heart that beats

Underneath

That’s why I need exception

From the rules of attraction

When it comes to you, yeah

Oh, when it comes to you

Don’t you know the path you’re on

Is paved with all the hearts you’ve been leaving

Broken and bleeding

I, can’t you see the life you’re living on has you

Lying and cheating, hurting, deceiving

I, oh yeah, yeah

Oh, when it comes to you
