Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, I'm tired of losing
I used to win every night of the week
Yeah, back when sex and amphetamines
Oh, the staples of our childhood physique
You used to tell me we'd turn into something
Oh, we said life was much better than this
Yeah, but the closest I've come to perfection
Is when you turn around to steal a kiss
[Verse 2]
But you never trusted tomorrow
Yeah, baby, is that any way to live your life?
Well, you love this heart and this six string, girl
Oh, but they've been out of tune
Yeah, for some time
[Verse 3]
Well, you said, oh, I love so many women
Oh, there's so many women, love and driving me wild
Yeah, they say, oh, you get lost in complexion
And the structure of a well placed smile
[Verse 4]
But luckily, ooh
Oh, you never smile
Yeah, oh, you, ooh
Oh, you never smile
Oh, and it looks just a little bit better that way to me
Sometimes it does
[Verse 5]
Oh, but you know you never trusted tomorrow
Oh, baby, that's just a problem of mine
Yeah, I've been thrown around by some bad ones, girl
And a good one was a new thing this time
[Verse 6]
Yeah, but you showed me that I couldn't be farther
Oh, from the truth of the problem at hand
Oh, I could never say, baby, tomorrow
Oh, I'll be right there
I'll be your man
Yeah, oh, I'll be your man
[Verse 7]
Good luck to us all
