If you can see yourself looking like you do What would you say you were thinkin'? Spending all your time looking for something new You better swim cause your sinkin' Go ask your mother cause she knows what you need Left your heart open, I'm just helping it bleed Sign you up for every program in the book No, you don't need invitations No one's questioning your problem or your look It's just your public relations Won't just ask me because I know what you need Leavin' your heart open cause it needs time to bleed I'll still be here, when you get here I'll still be, I'll still be here Yesterday I read a letter from an editor that tells me what he thinks How all this music is boring Concentrating on how much this really stinks It's not my fault if you're snoring Go ask your mother cause she knows what you need Left your open cause it needs time to bleed I'll still be here, when you get here I'll still be, I'll still be here So across the Atlantic doesn't sound that romantic Since everyone has done it, so it's dumb I'd like to say I'm sorry for intruding But I'm sick of your eluding To the fact that growing up is growing old Just say that you'll be here Just say that you'll be here That was so close
