when you said that you heard that he knew
you were always lookin’ down
it was an awful thing
yeah, such an awful thing
because he knew that you weren’t ready yet
no, no
when you said he was over you
it was a double-edged sword
cuz I have always loved you
yeah!
and I’ve been waiting for you
for fuckin’ half of my life
but I hate to see you cry
la la la…
so take a look around ya, turn around, baby
you’re hangin’ round now with the wrong crowd
don’t say there’s nothing you can do
might seem impossible, baby,
but you gotta find a way
sit yourself down and think about it baby
don’t hide your head down in the sand, now
there’s always something to see
these things, they come and they go,
so keep your eyes up on that road
it’s an appetite that won’t give in
until it bottoms out
til then, know I desire you emphatically and endlessly
cuz you’re outta sight
now hold your head up and think about it, girl
cuz it’s not too late, baby, you know it ain’t
don’t let no one say it is
so take a deep breath in and just think, think, think
think about it
but if you wanna turn me down, then I’ll turn around, baby
and walk right out - won’t even make a sound
but I gotta ask you anyway
I gave you my heart and soul
so won’t you please kindly reciprocate?
