Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? – The Cranberries

Linger

If you, if you could go back
don’t let it burn,
don’t let it go away
I’m sure it could be rude
but it’s just your attitude
the one that is tearing me apart
the one that spoils everything
And I swore, I swore I would be faithful
Baby just like you
So why did you shake your hand?
Is this how we support each other?
Have you always been lying?
Was it just a game for you?

Even though I’m in there so deep
You know i’m like a fool to you
You got me wrapped around your pinky
Do you have to let it last?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it last?

I had you on a pedestal
I thought nothing could go wrong
but it was a mistake, I was wrong
If you, if you could survive
trying not to lie,
things wouldn’t be so confusing
and I wouldn’t feel used
Although you always really knew
I just wanted to be with you

Even though I’m in there so deep
You know i’m like a fool to you
You got me wrapped around your pinky
Do you have to let it last?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it last?
You know i’m like a fool to you
You got me wrapped around your pinky
Do you have to let it last?
Do you have to, do you have to, do you have to let it last?
