You know what I mean
It's like walking in the heat all day with no water
It's like waiting for a friend
Watching everybody else meet theirs on that corner
Or losing in an argument
Although you're right, can't get your thoughts in order
Still I refrain
From talking at you, talking on
You know me well
I don't explain
But what the hell
Why do you think I come 'round here on my free will?
Wasting all my precious time
Oh, the truth spills out
And oooooo oh I've
I've told you now
You know what I mean
Although I try my best, I still let down the team
You're everything I want
Why should I resist when you are there for me?
Should I refrain
From talking at you, talking on
You know me well
I don't explain
But what the hell
Why do you think I come 'round here on my free will?
Wasting all my precious time
Oh the truth spills out
And oooooo oh I've
I've told you now
I've told you now
And I've told you now!
And I've told you now!
Still I refrain
From talking at you, talking on
You know me well
I don't explain
So what the hell
Why do you think I come 'round here on my free will?
Wasting all my precious time
Oh, the truth spills out
And oooooo oh I've
I've told you now
