Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I just wanna say that for the record

I don't ever wanna miss a second, I'll be at your beck and call

I recognize I could be a better guy

I could be a better guy

[Verse 2]

Found out that you've got your face long, that could be relatable

If I knew the right thing to say, I'd say it every day

And you can get it anyhow, I hope you're feelin' better now

[Verse 3]

Do you want a coffee or tea?

We'll just chill, watch an episode

I'll fall over just to make you feel like you're home

[Verse 4]

Alright, take off my shoes 'cause like

I just know I won't stand up on my own

If only you could take a step in these nines

I can't rest till you realize

[Verse 5]

I just wanna say that for the record

I don't ever wanna miss a second, I'll be at your beck and call

I recognize I could be a better guy

I just wanna say that for the record

I don't wanna miss another second, I'll be at your beck and call

I could just listen

[Verse 6]

I could just listen and you could see the persistence

That my infliction was missin'

I missed the boat by a distance or so

Or so it seemed but I'm as dry as a bone

[Verse 7]

Just wanna make you feel at home

I'll make you mission

There's no one else in my vision

'Cause you my only ambition

[Verse 8]

I gotta be sentimental now

I'll put you in the center of every single centerfold

And it'd be the minimum

It's not as though you didn't know

[Verse 9]

I just wanna say that for the record

I don't ever wanna miss a second, I'll be at your beck and call

I recognize I could be a better guy

I just wanna say that for the record

I don't wanna miss another second, I'll be at your beck and call

I could just listen

I'm gonna be a better guy

[Verse 10]

I just wanna say that for the record

I don't wanna miss another second, I'll be at your beck and call

I could just listen

I'm gonna be a better guy

I'm gonna be a better guy
