Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So you, you think the world looks crazy
And eats up your lies
Like it's good for her, like apple pies
And she don't even cry
[Verse 2]
She is not a fool
She's just tryna do what her heart says to
(To love you) To love you
[Verse 3]
As you take to the wind (To the wind again, my friend)
As she breaks down within (Within, within, within)
She waits for you patiently
Hopin' that one day you'll see
All she really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone, eternally
[Verse 4]
What do you want the girl to do?
Don't you know you're breakin' the child in two
What do you want that girl to do?
When all she really wants is you
[Verse 5]
'Cause she knows what you are
Still she'll be your queen
You say the words today
And build your world around her
[Verse 6]
Now and then you'll promise
All the way-out things you're gonna get her
(You will see, you will be)
(So damn glad you found her) But you know better have
[Verse 7]
(Free to go) As she watched you come and go
(For the show, the show, the show)
And as she watched your promises erode (Erode, erode, erode)
She waits for you patiently
Hopin' that one day you'll see
That all she really wants to be
Is yours and yours alone, eternally
[Verse 8]
What do you want the girl to do? Oh
Don't you know you're breakin' the child in two
What do you want that girl to do? Whoa
When all she really wants to be
Yours eternally
[Verse 9]
What do you want the girl to do? Whoa
Don't you know you're breakin' the child in two
What do you want that girl to do? Whoa
Don't you know you're breakin' the child in two
