Lyrics
I got a real bad habit of thinking I'm the one
Who can put things right when no one else could get it done
But a thing stays broken when it's broken for so long
And all I do is paint myself another shade of wrong
I could never love you but I'm sure I like to try
Lost causes turn me on and cut me like a knife, yeah
You say you're broken and I just might be the cure
I'd love to fix you up and leave you
Leave you wanting more
Leave you wanting more
We could last the weekend and we can talk all night
Or I could let my shoulder soak up every tear you cry
But the morning's coming and a Monday sun
Will bring us back to tears from all the battles that you've won
I could never love you but I'm sure I like to try
Lost causes turn me on and cut me like a knife, yeah
You say you're broken and I just might be the cure
I'd love to fix you up and leave you
Leave you wanting more
Leave you wanting more
I'm gonna leave here with nothing
'Cause you're not gonna change
And I'm not really sure why I like it that way
I could never love you but I'm sure I like to try
Lost causes turn me on and cut me like a knife, yeah
You say you're broken and I just might be the cure
I'd love to fix you up and leave you
Leave you wanting more
Leave you wanting more
