I bought you everything that you asked for,
|
everything but you wanted more,
|
I guess it wasn't quite enough.
|
I did everything that you asked me to,
|
everything that I could do,
|
I guess it wasn't quite enough.
|
I should have acted like a hopeless pessimist,
|
'cause I know that you're a sucker for that type,
|
and if I told you I was gonna kill myself,
|
maybe then you'd comfort me and hold me tight.
|
Will I ever learn?
|
I took you every place that you wanted to go,
|
every single place that I know,
|
I guess it wasn't quite enough.
|
I told you everything that you wanted to hear,
|
I said I loved you in your ear,
|
I guess it wasn't quite enough.
|
(Chorus)
|
No matter what I do
|
I'll never be with you
|
and if it ends that way
|
I guess I'll be okay
|
