Well I guess

I'm just here to test your patience

Cause you're

so smart my tricks don't work at all

Is it my lack of education just tell me why

You never call

Behind your symmetry

lies a fundamental difference

There are those who own

their minds and those who call

No offense but in between

the lines I'm reading

You look out for your own

and you're gonna look at me that way

And it's true

So what can I do

Everything you get's slowing your affection

What can I do

And maybe impress you with a song

What can I do

I'm trying to minimize the damage done

cause there ain't no one like you

I found that postcard from

that trip you took to Thailand

I remember studying all the words

written in your pretty hand

The little lines and little curls

that held a sacred meaning

Or so I thought but I had it wrong

Now I'm trying to figure out

when it was you gave me these heartworms

I feel them wriggling

in my blood gonna do me harm

By now I'd rather lose this losing feeling that

came on when you cooled off

Started treating me in this friendly way

And it's true

So what can I do

Oh won't you be still for a moment

What can I do

So I can push a feather through your heart

What can I do

I'm trying to minimize damage done

cause there ain't no one like you

So what can I do

When I get lonely to distraction

What can I do

Maybe impress you with a song

What can I do

No reason waiting around

in your saddest dream

It never came true
