When you try your best but you don’t succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can’t sleep
Stuck in reverse

How long before I get in?
Before it starts, before I begin?
How long before you decide?
Before I know what it feels like?

Come up to meet you, tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart

And like some drunken Elvis singing,
I go singing out of tune.
Saying how I always loved you, darling,
and I always will.
