Tekst piosenki
You keep me at arms length
In your quest for perfection
Doin' just the minimum
To hold on to my affection
I've waited patiently
Hoping you'll come through
You say you don't want to hurt me
But it's the first thing that you do.
I'm tired of having to be
Your emotional insurance policy
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
I love you with a heart so pure
But if you think I'll be waiting
Honey don't be so sure.
The boys you date are beautiful
That's undeniable
But unlike me
They're unreliable
You take for granted I'll
Wait around for you
To be there to fall back on
When your sexcapades are through
I'm tired of being your safety net
The more I care the more entangled I get
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
I love you with a heart so pure
But if you think I'll be waiting
Honey don't be so sure.
There's nothing like affection deferred
To crush your soul and stain your world
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
I love you with a heart so pure
But if you think I'll be waiting
Honey don't be so sure.
