I'll stop talking to you and watching everything you do
And I'll take all my proud down south
Home to mummy and daddy, instead of crying in taxis
I'll be crying while the TV's loud
I will sell all the clothes that you took off my body
But right now they're in a bag in my house
I can't get rid of you as much as I try to
You're like this growing ever-dreading doubt
But maybe (ooh) in the morning I'll be better
Once I sweat (ooh) you out like it was just a fever
But you intoxicate (ooh) me, complicate the way I sleep at night
It wasn't what (ooh) I wanted, baby, it was better
But whatever
But whatever
I won't take too much, just a momentary touch
As we pass each other on the street
You will whisper to your friends not to come here again
'Cause I make it so awkward when we meet
I'll keep trying my best not to draw your attention
But I like it when you're looking at me
I can't help that I'm obsessive and still a bit possessive
Over all the parts of your body
Well maybe (ooh) in the morning I'll be better (I'll be better)
Once I sweat (ooh) you out like it was just a fever
But you intoxicate (ooh) me, complicate the way I sleep at night
It wasn't what (ooh) I wanted, baby, it was better
But whatever (la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la)
But whatever (la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la)
Whatever, ah-ah (la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la)
It wasn't what I wanted (la-la, la, la), baby
It was better (la-la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
You might say that you did me a favor and you now go and say
That you "didn't have to save her"
But I never asked you to
So you are still the baggage that I carry around
Slowly wearing me down as I ask myself
"Where are you now?"
When I'm lying under my rebound
I still here the sound of this voice in my head saying
"Don't look now, he's across the street"
And the sky fell down on to that concrete
And I unwound as you denounced
Any love you ever had for me
Well maybe (ooh) in the morning I'll be better (I'll be better)
Once I sweat (ooh) you out like it was just a fever
But you intoxicate (ooh) me, complicate the way I sleep at night
It wasn't what (ooh) I wanted, baby, it was better
But whatever (la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la)
But whatever (la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la)
But whatever, ah-ah (la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la, la-la, la, la)
It wasn't what I wanted (la-la, la, la), baby
It was better (la-la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Whatever
