You're living in the city
And I'm living in the crevices of your heart
You like to spend your time with me
While you wait for something prevalent to start
I don't seek your pity
Just want the chance to show you I've got more than charm
For you, I'm nothing but a feeling
You're livin' free, but in a few years, I'll do you harm
And I said, "Can I get it through to you? Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you? I won't waste your time"
Can I get it through to you? Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
We can be more than friends
I wanna love you 'til the end of my life
'Cause you're a ten
And I'm a man that needs a dime
Oh, I
You're on a plane to Europe
And I just know you will do so well overseas
But I just can't seem to cheer up
Knowing you will forget me
And I said, "Can I get it through to you? Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you? I won't waste your time"
Can I get it through to you? Can I get it through to you?
Can I get it through to you?
We can be more than friends
I wanna love you 'til the end of my life
'Cause you're a ten
And I'm a man that needs a dime
Oh, I
Is it a crime to care so much for another
And left with nothin' for yourself?
When you're the one who needs help
Ooh, ooh-ooh
We can be more than friends
I wanna love you 'til the end of my life
'Cause you're a ten
And I'm a man that needs a dime
Oh, I wanna be more than friends
I wanna love you 'til the end of my life
'Cause you're a ten
And I'm a man that needs a dime
Oh, I
