Thought I¡¯d make the cloudy sunny
|
But it seems my lover hates sunlight.
|
Went to see her in the morning
|
But it seems she¡¯s only home at night.
|
Bought a wagon full of roses
|
And my lover says she hates the smell.
|
Most folks say that I should give up
|
But I think its too early to tell.
|
|
Chorus:
|
So I try to second guess her
|
Hoping she¡¯ll profess her undying love and loyalty.
|
Continue to pursue her
|
Hoping to renew her sense in faith in guys like me
|
That woman is bound to see me
|
One day she¡¯ll believe me
|
You¡¯d think I was Houdini
|
With these tricks up my sleeve (2X)
|
|
So I brought her doves from Eden
|
And she says the feathers makes her sneeze
|
Suffice to say I¡¯ll never give up
|
Even though this woman¡¯s hard to please
|
By now I could be an artist
|
I spend so much time at the drawing board
|
Most folks say I should give up
|
But I kind of dig being ignored
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Notice how I focus all my hocus pocus and my energy on
|
making her mine
|
