lyrics

They're saying I should go and find
Someone else's hand to hold
'Cause it's sure to take you off my mind
In with the new out with the old
Oh but I look blank across the table
Try to listen to their words but I'm unable

And the more I try to make a friend
The more I think about her face again

It's a crime of comparison
A sin of insincerity
I cannot love two people at one time

Show my teeth and nod my head
I see you lying in my bed
I hear the mumbled sounds of what she likes to do
But no one can think like you, and after
When I get home the holes are bigger
This distraction they so call is but a trigger

And the more I try to make a friend
The more I think about her face again

It's a crime of comparison
A sin of insincerity
I cannot love two people at one time

I try to kill my time, I waste theirs too
They've got my heart in mind, It's still with you
And I don't want you back, our love was black and blue
But I still see nobody else

It's a crime of comparison
A sin of insincerity
I cannot love two people at one time

It's a crime of comparison
A sin of insincerity
I cannot love two people at one time
One time
