Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's understood, I said it many ways
Too scared to run, I'm too scared to stay
I said I'd leave, I can never leave her
If I did, you know I'd never cheat her
[Verse 2]
But this I ask, it's what I wanna know
How would you feel if I should choose to go?
Another guy, you think he'd be unlike me
Another guy, you think he'd wanna fight me
[Chorus]
She's a dove, she's a fucking nightmare
Unpredictable, it's my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
[Verse 3]
I heard it once, I'm sure I heard it twice
My dad used to give me all of his advice
He would say, "You gotta turn your back and run now
Come on, son, you haven't got a chance, now"
[Chorus]
She's a dove, she's a fucking nightmare
Unpredictable, it's my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
[Chorus]
She's a dove, she's a fucking nightmare
Unpredictable, it's my mistake to stay here
On the go and it's way too late to play
I need a girl that I can train
[Bridge]
Need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Turn your back and run now
You haven't got a chance now
[Outro]
Need a girl that I can train
Need a girl that I can train
Turn your back and run, now
You haven't got a chance now
