Arena

When I ask you for a kiss, you turn me down
I ignore you, and you come right to me
I don’t know what game you’re playing or what’s inside you
Or what’s going on in your heart

You give me a good pinch without me noticing
You say your love has gone cold
And it only takes a single caress
For you to say, 'Make love to me'

We’re made from the same stuff
And maybe that’s for the best
Sand
You give me one good thing and then take it away
If you’re not here, I’m dying like a fish in the sand
I’m just a wave, and you’re the tide
Sand
You give me one good thing and then take it away
If you’re not here, I’m dying like a fish in the sand
I’m just a wave, and you’re the tide

You lead me by the hand like a girlfriend
And you sneak glances at another woman
I’m the prisoner, and you’re the soldier
And I know you’re punishing me well

You give me a kiss, and I feel so dirty
You leave notes in my pants
If I get home early and don’t find you
You make me feel like a thief

We’re made from the same stuff
And maybe that’s for the best
Sand
You give me one good thing and then take it away
If you’re not here, I’m dying like a fish in the sand
I’m just a wave, and you’re the tide
Sand
You give me one good thing and then take it away
If you’re not here, I’m dying like a fish in the sand
I’m just a wave, and you’re the tide
Sand
