Delayed Devotion Lyrics - Rockferry - Duffy

It seems you wanna give me 

Oh, a life time of security 

Down on your dying knees 

I watch you, babe, I watch you plead 

But your words come much too late 

My love for you has turned to hate 

Cause you've taken too much time 

To show me that you're mine 

When I drop you boy 

You'll need another toy 

One that won't stand up for herself 

When I knock you down 

You'll need another town 

Where somebody's gonna talk to you 

You just let me wait 

Now it's too late 

For your delayed, delayed devotion 

You try to convince me 

Oh, about the possibilities 

But I know that all your poetry 

Just comes from insecurity 

Cause your actions speak nothing no more 

When it's what I've been waiting for 

Cause you've taken too much time 

To show me that you're mine 

When I drop you boy 

You'll need another toy 

One that won't stand up for herself 

When I knock you down 

You'll need another town 

Where somebody's gonna talk to you 

You just let me wait 

Now it's too late 

For your delayed, delayed devotion 

You played me for a fool for too long 

Blinded by your lies I never saw your all 

I'm no longer under your spell 

Hear it in a song 

You can go to Hell 

When I drop you boy 

You'll need another toy 

One that won't stand up for herself 

When I knock you down 

You'll need another town 

Where somebody's gonna talk to you 

You just let me wait 

Now it's too late 

For your delayed, delayed devotion
