Talk is cheap love is short lived
Drinks go by too fast
How could you mistake her for some girl
Who wouldn't last a minute more
In your world
Than you'd let her
So take your time treat yourself
After all it's your
Night out on the town
But don't forget the summer dress
She planned to wear before winter
Came and ruined all that you were pursuing
You shared a glance, eye-to-eye
But you knew she'd never
Stand a chance among these suit and ties
You wondered
How in the world you could fall for a girl
In overalls, converse, no pearls
Won't you hope it all makes sense won't you
Hope it all makes perfect sense won't you
Hope it all makes sense when you wake up
From your slumbers in her make up
You told yourself
You couldn't help to change
The way you felt that
Maybe you're the type of guy
To over romanticize
But you don't
Despite the words you quote
So you stay at home
You never pick up your phone
You just lay low
And tell yourself
You're so much better on your own
But how could she have known?
Won't you hope it all makes sense
Won't you
Hope it all makes perfect sense
Won't you
Hope it all makes sense
When you wake up
From your slumbers
In her make up
Oh she was all I needed for so long
As if my heart's finally done competing
But that was so wrong
And now that I've been completed
We could finally finally move on
Cohorts of wedding rings
What do those really mean
To you or me
Or to anyone who sings
Songs of love to themselves
Before they find out
The one they love
Is in love with someone else and
Please don't forget her black coat
It's still on the rack
It wonders when it will have her back
But it knows
She shows off her figure at night
Won't you hope it all makes sense
Won't you
Hope it all makes perfect sense
Won't you
Hope it all makes sense
When you wake up
From your slumbers
In her make up
Do you love her ways
Do you love the pretty things she says
When she wakes up late
With no time to put nothing on her face
But doesn't she look great?
