You're so pretty the way you are You got to say it if you want to But you won't change me And you have no reason To be so insolent to me

I know what I want Since you found me out And that's more than you can say You just take me through the motions What if I would say Simple words I can't relate Mad in a way but I don't say It's what you're used to I got the words but can't convey

But you've got to show me love Words are so easy to say So baby if you want me You've got to show me love Heartbreaks and promises I've had more than my share I'm tired of giving my love And getting nowhere, nowhere It's been so long since I touched a

You've got to show me love So, baby if you want me Words are so easy to say, but Heartbreaks and promises I've had more than my share I'm tired of giving my love And getting nowhere, nowhere It's been so long since I've touched the wanting hand

I'm in love with a monster I'm in love (I'm in love) Did you know (did you know) Say what you want but I won't ever be told Got everything I need, and I'd rather be chasing Chasing love, with a monster Oh, he'll buy me a thorn before he'll buy me a rose

Wouldn't it be great I want to be Consequence free If no one ever got offended To say what's really on your mind I've always said That all the rules are made for bending And if I let my hair down

So don't knock it, don't knock it, you've been here before I just wanted to know if I could go home So don't knock it, don't knock it I got a notion to say what doesn't feel right Got an answer in your story today It gave me a sign that didn't feel

If you still want me, please forgive me, The crown of love has fallen from me. You gotta be the one, You gotta be the way, They say it fades if you let it, Love was made to forget it. I carved your name across my eyelids, You pray for rain I pray for

It's got to get better in a little while. Don't you know what's wrong with me? I'm seeing things I don't want to see. Sniffing things that ain't no good for me. I'm going down fast, won't you say a prayer for me? The sun's got to shine on my guitar
