[Verse]
What have you done
To justify the demand of our deference
Only time will spoil
Your inflated statue of yourself
You've been underwhelmed

[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run

[Verse]
You take so much pride in knowing
That you've misled someone else
You can't match your smile
When you've fulfilled the great deception
They've been overwhelmed

[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run from me

[Bridge]
I will smother your needs
Forget the fiction of what
You thought we could never be
I'll follow you if you won't follow me

[Chorus]
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under
Only for a second there
I had you fooled
You were under my thumb
I've been growing patient, dear
I'll wait for you, my love
Where you can't run
