Lyrics to Kryptonite

Here we are again, starting a fight

Dancing 'round the room with truth and desire

Try to walk a straight line

And not look behind, as if maybe the distance gets better with time

But I'm looking right at you

And I know that's not true



I'll try keeping tonight as light as can be

But you're my kryptonite and its wearing on me

Starring at me like I've got a hero to be

Watch your eyes slowly turning from blue into green

And I'm no superman

But even with all of my mind

Hard as I wanna try

I can't fight against kryptonite



Enter you the room

And all I can feel is the hold you have on me

And its frighteningly real

You say you're doing well you look pretty as hell

And I'm back where I started I thought I'd broken this spell

But I'm right in front of you and I know that's not true



So, I'll try keeping tonight as light as can be

But you're my kryptonite and its wearing on me

Starring at me like I've got a hero to be

Watch your eyes slowly turning from blue into green

And I'm no superman

But even with all of my mind

Hard as I wanna try

I can't fight against kryptonite



'Cause I'm right in front of you

And its just like the first time

And there's nothing I can do

But tell you that I will try



Keeping tonight as light as can be

But you're my kryptonite and its wearing on me

Starring at me like I've got a hero to be

Watch your eyes slowly turning from blue into green

And I'm no superman

But even with all of my mind

Hard as I wanna try

I can't fight against kryptonite
