If I had a penny for every time I caught you
|
Undressing me with your eyes
|
I'd be a rich one and then I could prove all my senses were real all along
|
You wanted me too
|
|
Though now you laugh and call me a fool
|
I know you wanted me too
|
Before she got to you
|
|
If I could remember all the things you
|
Used to say when we were left alone
|
I'd have a book of sonnets so inspired
|
All the muses would cringe at your denial
|
At how you wanted me too
|
|
Though now you laugh and call me a fool
|
I know you wanted me too
|
Before she got to you
|
|
Before she got to you,
|
I would say that we were something special to behold
|
But now it's over, all over
|
Before she came barging through,
|
We were prime to make the kind of love
|
As scarce as four leaf clover
|
Now, I'm a bit confused
|
Cos what I felt I thought was true...
|
Did she barge in and steal your heart away?
|
Or did you know from the first day
|
I was just someone to play?
|
If so, damn that's cold
|
|
Before she got to you,
|
I would say that we were something special to behold
|
But now it's over, all over
|
Before she came barging through,
|
We were prime to make the kind of love
|
As scarce as four leaf clover
|
If I could understand what you have found in her
|
More than you could have had with me
|
I'd finally understand a mind
|
As twisted as yours must be for you to go
|
Just when you wanted me too
|
|
Though now you laugh and call me a fool
|
I know you wanted me too
|
What kind of spell has she put on you?
|
I know you wanted me too
|
Before she got to you
|

She Got To You
