The girl I left behind me was bad at being good
|
The happiest arsonist that ever was
|
The happiest communist that ever was
|
|
The girl I left behind me-you said she wouldn't do
|
I know who I want to be-I want to be like you
|
So why do I change myself to be worthy of you
|
|
She's a needer
|
A bleeder
|
And likes to be on top
|
She's a girlfriend
|
A whirlwind
|
And not so logical
|
But she's an ocean in motion
|
And magical but you won't let her shine
|
|
The girl I left behind me
|
We've spoken once or twice
|
She says I have twice her strength well isn't that nice
|
She says I can call her anywhere or any time
|
|
She's a needer
|
A bleeder
|
I know that says a lot and
|
She's a girlfriend
|
A whirlwind
|
And not so logical
|
But she's an ocean in motion
|
And magical but you won't let her shine
|
|
You watch me as I fall apart for you
|
Watch me as I fall apart for you
|
Watch me as I waste myself and I waste myself and I waste myself
|
|
The girl I left behind me
|
Was bad at being good
|
The happiest arsonist that ever was
|
