Lyrics: Peter Bradley Adams. Traces. I Tell Myself.

Always the same place out on a limb
Always the same mistake when we try to be friends
My heart's open wide tonight and she's knocking again
But I tell myself, "Don't let her in"

How long can this raincloud hang over my head?
I carry these thoughts around and the things that she said
I'm starting to break down and I want her to know
But I tell myself, "Just let her go"


We'll make this the last time, then never again
There's no need to ask why, it's so easy to pretend

My heart's open wide tonight and she's knocking again
So I tell myself, "Just let her in"
I can't help myself, I let her in
Just one last time I let her in

Peter Bradley Adams
