Take your head and knock some sense Je ne comprends pas Ain’t no compliments Ain’t no being friends Ain’t no false pretense Ain’t no make amends Ain’t no come agains That’s the story, ain’t no happy ends Close the door, lose the key Leave my heart on the mat for me I was yours eternally There’s an end to infinity To infinity To infinity Is it lack of ice got you so cold? Have you ever felt this on your own? Why you tryin' to play like you’re so grown? Everything you own, boy, you still owe Close the door, lose the key Leave my heart on the mat for me I was yours eternally There’s an end to infinity To infinity To infinity You're leaving, you're leaving, you're out the door Infinity loving me more and more You're leaving, you're leaving, you're out the door Infinity loving me more and more 'Cause I believe infinity is more than just a made up dream I believe infinity is more than just a made up dream
