This is a story about a guy that wants this girl who is already in a messy love situation. In the end he chooses to keep his feelings to himself except in his own fantasies. In real life, he should have followed his heart.

That girl will weave her way around you
Stitch you into your skin
You never felt your own nakedness until that
First taste of sin
Well, I've got forty dollars and
I've got plenty of time
We can sit here for hours and still
Never cross that line

She's got a hungry solitude
It's nothing she can't bear
But she can move and shake it off and still
Leave you hanging there

It's that same old story
I've heard it all before
Good loving never lasts too long when you keep
One foot on the floor
We've got until the morning
To sort all of this out
Just as sure as the sun comes up you know that
Three is still a crowd

Well, she's got a hungry solitude
It's nothing she can't bear
But she can move and shake it off and still
Leave you hanging there

Well, I've got that hungry solitude,
Well, it's nothing I can't bear
But she can move and get me off
And never leaves me hanging there
