[Verse 1]
Baby, I got the best intention
But I just can't do it
Baby, I got the truest aim
But I just can't win
And baby, I got a good vibration
But I just can't play it
Baby, I spent my only fortune
On the wages of sin

[Chorus]
So you gotta be extra forgiving
You gotta be super strong
And you gotta be a true romantic
I want you to look the other way
Everything goes wrong

[Verse 2]
If you took all the good stuff
And you put it all together
And you took all the bad stuff
And you threw it all away
Would I still be the girl
That suits your fancy?
Would I still be the boy
That rocks your world?
[Verse 3]
So if you get lonely
For the trouble and the chaos
And if you get bored
Since you walked away
You remember what I told you
When the night was darkest
You can leave me all you need to
Baby, I'm here to stay

[Chorus]
And baby, I'm gonna be extra forgiving
And I'm gonna be super strong
'Cause baby, I'm, I'm a true romantic
I'm gonna look the other way
When everything goes wrong
