I drive away from your house, chasin' butterflies out Girl, I don't know how you do it Roll the radio down, say "I love you" out loud Man, I think I'm 'bout to lose it Ain't my thing to jump the gun, But I called my dad and said "She's the one" Said

Ah, I'll get even with you I'll get you back somehow Ah, that's what I'm gonna do Gonna get even with you I'm lonely and abandoned Washed up, left for dead I'm lost inside the desert Of every word you said Like a nuclear reactor

If I could tell her But we're a million worlds apart And I don't know how I would even start But he kept it all inside his head What he saw he left unsaid Tell her everything I see How she's everything to me He thought you were awesome

And I said someday I'll get my life straight And she said it's too late What's done is done And I told her someday She said I can't wait 'Cause sometimes someday just never comes She looked me in the eye and said it's over I can't take this heartache

Do you see what I see (Do you see what I see) With a tail as big as a kite Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy, Do you hear what I hear (Do you hear what I hear) With a voice as big as the sea Let us bring Him silver and gold Listen to what I say He

What have we said Wasn't it their bed Haven't we paid penance What of presence And the little boy stared Into the eyes of the night Button collects price of his time Little girl glared Sheets of denial

And I don't care what they say about you baby They don't know what you've been through Nobody knows the way that I know her, said She got a bad reputation Trust me, I could be the one to treat you like a lady Let me see what's underneath, all I need is

Lie me beside you every night And dread the day you might be gone She said "In case you hadn't noticed that Played second fiddle to the bottle for a little too long (no) And I ain't about to anymore" For I know not just what I've done Lying face down in

When it came to love I thought we had enough Then again, what do I know? I'm just another boy in another band You're just another girl I put in a song I watched her pack up her mink coat, pink stilettos, rosary She turned and said she was going, chasing

I can't wait to get away Thoughts are pissed away And for a minute I couldn't swallow You think your head's achin', I'm not finished yet I won't be mistaken, how soon you forget Take back what you said and I'll spare you pain Then you can spare me all
