All you girls in all your cities
would you tell me something about sitting in trees
with boys that love you but you don't love back
it says so on all of your magazine racks
and it takes so much as another boy coming
one that he knows has a better life coming
than I ever did, have, or will that's a promise
and bring me into night, so I'll forget all of this
-------------------------------------------------------------
All of these feelings onto me like your shrink
I stand so close to you I fear for the brink
She says that she'll call and she'll write sometime soon
But I know her better, she'll stay and she'll swoon
all without you and within you, whatever the day
You're there when she needs you but friends are both ways
I feel like i need to get paid for my services
just bring me into night, so I'll forget all of this
-------------------------------------------------------------
I get to your house and you're slurrin' your speech
and thousands and thousands will ask us to leave
i'll stay home to take care of you while I can
You're flying away, I'll be here when you land
It doesn't mean any less or any more lost
Like traffic on freeways, I need you to stop
there's no question you're good and you're nothing less than heart
but i can't follow you wherever you are
Like Benjamin said, I see you upside down
trouble is calling me down from the crowd
you're a God-fearing girl, but when you kiss
you bring me into night and I forget all of this
