When I Can Afford to Lose - Will Hoge

I've been tryin' to climb this wall

Two years three months five days

Well please don't let me fall

Understand my dear when you come walking' near

I want you back again

'Cause i know that i can't win

It's not for me to choose

I'll take you back again when i can afford to lose

I see your picture on my table

And your ghost is sleeping' in my bed

Your goodbye still rattles and rattles and rattles around

Like thunder through my head

So i'll have one more cigarette

And hope that soon i will forget

When you walked in

'Cause i know that i can't win

It's not for me to choose

I'll take you back again when i can afford to lose

Take you back again when i can afford to lose

Don't leave me hangin' on this borderline

The things i could do with a whisper from you could just blow your mind

And understand my dear when you come walking' near

I want you back again

'Cause i know that i can't win

It's not for me to choose

I'll take you back again when i can afford to lose

Take you back again when i can afford to lose

I'll take you back again when i can afford to lose
