I'll be perfect and you'll be sweet

I'll be contempt and you'll forgive me

I'll forget and you'll be numb

Help undo the damage we've become

You'll quit smoking and I'll be sober

Hide the marks that bend us broken underneath the covers

With a little bit of luck we'll survive

You don't ask me questions babe and I won't have to lie

With a little bit of luck I won't leave

I'll stay here with you and you'll be nice to me

You'll be kind and I'll be a lady

I'll be soft and you don't lay a hand on me

I'll be happy and you don't mind

I'll watch my temper and we'll stop picking a fight

With a little bit of luck we'll survive

You don't ask me questions babe and I won't have to lie

With a little bit of luck I won't leave

I'll stay here with you and you'll be nice to me

Yeah you'll be nice to me

I won't have to lie, you'll be nice to me
