First the good news

Its gonna feel very nice

Then the bad news

You gotta pay a heavy price

Rip tide, we slide, we ride on a deep forbidden sea

Under we go so slow

And you're hangin' onto me

And I say



CHORUS

Oh, oh, one more addiction in my world

oh, one more connection to let go

oh, floating down the river,

out of site forever (from my world)

Its the only thing I know how to do



I reject you

But I can't follow through

I'd forget you

But you'd end up tappin' on my back door

Somehow I lost myself

in a tunnel long and black

Somewhere, at the end

I pretend theres a way of turnin' back

And I say



CHORUS



Take a breath

let it out

all the things you frown about

are meaningless of course unless

you're doing this for real I guess

I meant to but

I don't know what

is in the way and could I say

Its you, I bet

I won't forget

Maybe I'm not ready yet



CHORUS (x2)



Its the only thing I know how to do (x2)

Its the only thing, only thing that I

Its the only thing, the only thing that I

Its the only thing I know how to do

Its the only thing, only thing that I know how to do

If I forget you
