Oh you stupid boy
Do you imagine her
Kissing you on the lips
Cause you had too much to drink
At the bonfire
Oh my silly friend
You never reached for her hand
You knew it wouldn't fit
Cause it was already filled
By her last boyfriend
Her eyes
Are a lovely shape and hue
And there's nothing we can do
Except sit and stare for a while
Her smile
Is a lovely leading cue
That maybe someday she'll like you
But for now you've got a lifeline
And everything keeps telling you that you've gotta make your move fast
But baby you've got things left in the hallway
And everyone keeps telling you that you have it bad
I know you're trying to help me
But this is my heart
And I don't need you to tell me
So just play your part
Just pretend you don't see me
Throwing myself into dangerous waters
But be there when I drown
Cause I know I'm going to lose deep down
I know you're trying to save me
But this is my start
I don't need you to help me
But I need your car
To drive down to the docks when it's time to win the day
Or drive back in time to hear you tell me 'what did I say?'
