Lyrics
I took a backseat, a backhander, I took her back to her room
I better get back to the basics for you, oh, yeah
You gotta conscience, compassion, you got a way with the word
You gotta heart full of complacency too
Yes, I like that, darling
I don't have a purpose or mission, I'm empty by definition
I got a lack, girl, that you'd love to be, ooh
You wanna diva a deduction, you wanna do what they do
You wanna do damage that you can undo (undo, undo)
Apart from everyone, away from your love
A part of me belongs apart from all the hurt above
I got a perfect way to make a new proposition
I got a perfect way to make a justification
I got a perfect way to make a certain a maybe
I got a perfect way to make the girls go crazy
I took a day job amendment, I took a liking to you
I took a page out of my rulebook for you, ooh
You wanna message a confession, you wanna martyr me too
You wanna margin of error for two
Yes, I'd like that
Maybe tomorrow, the next letter or when the weather gets better
I gotta wait here for your moon to turn blue, ooh-ooh
I made an offer, exception, I made a sense out of you
You took a good look at your book and I knew (I do, I do)
In times of tenderness, in terms, baby, so true
Until such time as I can understand all the things you do
I got a perfect way to make a new proposition
I got a perfect way to make a justification
I got a perfect way to make a certain a maybe
I got a perfect way to make the girls go crazy
Want to forgive you for all the things that you do
Wanna forget how to remember with you
Maybe tomorrow, the next letter or when the weather gets better
I've got to wait here for your moon to turn blue (your moon to turn blue)
Apart from everyone, away from your love
A part of me belongs apart from all the hurt above
I got a perfect way to make a new proposition
I got a perfect way to make a justification
I got a perfect way to make a certain a maybe
I got a perfect way to make the girls go crazy
This is a perfect way to make a new proposition
This is a perfect way to make a justification
This is a perfect way to make a certain a maybe
This is a perfect way to make the girls go crazy
A perfect way
I got a perfect way, a perfect way
I got a perfect way, a new proposition
I got a perfect way
