You say I'd best be going cause it's getting late

And I say

Why don't I walk you home cause it's on the way

But the last time

That we made love, you left in tears

So this time

You're wondering how to leave it here

And I haven't seen you since last winter break

And I know that I broke your heart

But always such a smart one, always so intelligent

You must know that I took it hard.

Oh, baby I think we both know

This is the love that we won't get right

Still if you said that you wanted

I know I'll always have one more try

Oh, baby, I think we both know

This is the love that we won't get right

Still if you said that you wanted

I know I'll always have one more try.

You pull

That face like, 'here we go again'

So I pull

A flask out the back of my jeans

And then you take a pull

And in my mind we're in my bed

And I'm pulling

Your sweater up over your head

And I haven't seen you since last winter break

And I know that you hate how that went

But always such a smart one, always so intelligent

You must know what's happening.

Oh, baby I think we both know

This is the love that we won't get right

Still if you said that you wanted

I know I'll always have one more try

Oh, baby, I think we both know

This is the love that we won't get right

Still if you said that you wanted

I know I'll always have one more try.

Oh it's magnetic, isn't it?

The sense of something underneath the surface

When you're laying on thin ice

Just a little bit masochistic

A tentative ellipses

The parting of your lips and the ache in your eyes

But I think I'm gonna kiss you.

All despite

What we both know.

This is the love that we won't get right

Still if you said that you wanted

I know I'll always have one more try

Oh, baby, I think we both know

This is the love that we won't get right

Still if you said that you wanted

I know I'll always have one more try.
