Lyrics
I’m too good for my own good
I revealed myself to you because I love you,
Now I feel you misunderstood,
It’s a feeling that I get; one that I’m used to,
And all these words I’ve said,
Do they make any sense? Do they make any dents in you?
Has all this time been time well spent?
I thought it was; tell me, do you…do you think it is?
And do you, do you see me?
Cause I…I’ve been reaching out to you,
Man, am I so naive?
Could you tell me please? Yeah,
I fight this feeling, this loneliness,
It is a feeling that I get - I don’t want to live with it, whoa,
I know now I don’t want to miss,
This chance with you, it could be so beautiful!
And all these words I’ve said,
Do they make any sense? Do they make any dents in you?
Has all this time been time well spent?
I thought it was, tell me…do you think it is?
And do you, do you see me?
Cause I, I’ve been reaching out to you,
Man, am I so naive?
Could you tell me please?
Because I’m slow, yeah, I’m slow,
All the teachers back in school they told me so,
Tell me, does it show? Tell me, does it show?
In the way I try to master all the things I can’t control,
Like waiting for you to turn around and say,
Hello, and you’ll see me,
I, I’ve been reaching out to you,
Man, am I so naive?
Could you just tell me please?
Hello, hello, hello!
Don’t you see? I - I’ve been reaching out to you,
Man, am I so naive?
Could you tell me please? Yeah.
