I could never take you home
At the end of the night when we’re all alone
So why am I gonna get worked up over nothing?
I could never treat you right
You need someone who can hold you tight
Whose bed is big and empty
Have mercy on me
Darling, can’t you see
How weak I am?
It’s not just an act
I’m holding it back
Buckling like a dam
I could never kiss your shoulder
So you’ll cover it up as the air gets colder
Which is the sensible thing to do
I could never lie straight faced
But crookedly, I do it with gracе
I’m scarcely attracted to you
Have mеrcy on me
A splitting tree
Who knows how it’ll grow?
It may look strong
But there’s something wrong
The wind knocks it to and fro
Have mercy on me
A splitting tree
Who knows how it’ll grow?
It may look strong
But there’s something wrong
The wind knocks it to and fro
I could never take you home
At the end of the night when we’re all alone
So why am I gonna get worked up?
Why am I getting worked up?
Why am I getting worked up?
Over nothing?
