A few words about friendship, love, and finally finding what you've been looking for.
I fell in love with you last spring
About the time you got this job
And though I know we're just acquaintances
I know that I'm somewhere in your heart
You walk past me every day
Walking over to your desk
I do everything I can to get your attention
But it hasn't happened yet
So it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't know my name
It's the end of the world for me
It's nice to see you here tonight
Just you and me working overtime
Maybe now we can have a conversation
And I can say what's on my mind
But it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't know my name
It's the end of the world for me
We'll talk about the finer things in life
And as soon as the floor starts shaking
I'll be yours for the taking
I'm alright if you're alright
I think we're clear of the debris
So let me take you from this falling tower
And back to solid ground with me
Oh
I see a man calling your name
You run and let him hold you close
So now I'm doomed to watch this whole world crumble and burn
And sit and die here all alone
It's the end of the world
And you don't know my name
It's the end of the world for me
Oh, it's the end of the world
And you don't know me
It's the end of the world to me
To me
To me
Listen to her talk, why is she so mad?
How did you upset her?
Is it possible you are innocent?
You could do much better
You take yourself so seriously sometimes
But surely you can't be serious
About making her your wife
Andy, you're too good for her
You gotta take your boy and walk away
Andy, oh you should prefer
One of the other girls who listen to what you say
All the girls in town want to be the one
Who will hold you tight
She's the only one
Who doesn't like your son
Who doesn't treat you right
When she says that she wants to be with you
The only thing that she cares about
Is making all the rules
Andy, you're too good for her
You gotta take your boy and walk away
Andy, oh you should prefer
One of the other girls
Who listen to what you say
The look in her eyes I wonder
Does she love you?
Does she want to use you for a while?
Andy, you're too good for her
You gotta take your boy and walk away
Andy, oh you should prefer
One of the other girls
Who listen to what you say
Andy, you're too good for her
You gotta take your boy and fly away
Andy, oh you should prefer
One of the other girls
Who listen to what you say
You say
You say
You're done with me, I can see it in your eyes
I tried so hard, but at least I tried
You say there's no other way, but I don't wanna believe you
But you say you've got a really, really, really good reason
I turn my head so I can't see you talk
You say, my friend, why don't we go for a walk?
And I don't even know why you say this is something you gotta do
But let me speak my piece before we're done
Let's go back to the place where we were both in love
And what I'm dreaming of was the reality
I can't go, you can't stay, and we can't make this all go away
And I know what you're gonna say, what you wanna be
And I know you wanna tell me
And I know you wanna tell me
And I know you wanna tell me, but I don't want you to say it now
Be real with me, is this what you want?
We can work it out, but you know let's not
But hey, whatever you say, we still could pretend it's true
But don't you act like you're the one who won
Let's go back to the place where we were both in love
And what I'm dreaming of was the reality
I can't go, you can't stay, and we can't make this all go away
And I know what you're gonna say, what you wanna be
And I know you wanna tell me
And I know you wanna tell me
And I know you wanna tell me, but I don't want you to say it
Give yourself a chance to change your mind
I'll wait for you, will you wait for me too?
1, 2, 3, 4
When I decided that you would be the one
Who would always be mine
I was sure you'd be as happy as I am
But when I told you that we were meant to be
You were decidedly unkind
And now I don't know where we stand
I can't be sure
I can't be sure now, baby
I can't be sure
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah
I know that you don't know me as well as I
Think that I know you
But that doesn't mean you can treat me this way
And now I find that I cannot
Acclimatize in your eyes to the kind of life that you idolize
I still don't want to be betrayed
I can't be sure
I can't be sure now, baby
I can't be sure
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah
I can't be sure
I can't be sure now, baby
I can't be sure
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah
I will follow you to school
I'll follow you home
I will follow you where you don't want me to go
I'll be right behind you
I will be your man
I'll make you take me by the hand
I can't be sure
I can't be sure now, baby
I can't be sure
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah
I can't be sure
I can't be sure now, baby
I can't be sure
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah
I can't be sure
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
I can't be sure
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah
I can't be sure (Oh, Miranda)
I can't be sure now, baby (Oh, Miranda)
I can't be sure (Oh, Miranda)
You're not gonna walk right out that door on me, yeah (Won't you be mine)
I love her
You love me
I think you're alright but honestly
I'm not sure who
The girl I'm gonna love is gonna be
I lay down on my chips
But you stand right there with your hands on your hips
I'm not sure who
I want to be kissing my lips
And I keep trying to believe her
She says she doesn't want me but
I know I'm such a keeper
And while I try so hard to get her
The three of us are gonna have the time of our lives together
On the couch, watch TV
I try to hold her hand while you look at me
I'm not sure who
The girl I'm gonna love is gonna be
You sit there all alone
I say you look so fine but I don't want her to know
I'm not sure who
I'm gonna ask to be my own
And I know we could be an item
I wanna say I love you
Then repeat ad infinitum
But while I try so hard to get her
The three of us are gonna have the time of our lives together
Oh, look at me, look at you
There's so much that we could do
If only I were able to let her go
Oh, she and I talk too much
But she and I never touch
But even so I know you, oh
I know you
You know me
We could be a pair for eternity
But I'm not sure who
The girl I'm gonna love is gonna be
And I keep trying hard to love you
But no matter how I swing it
She's still towering above you
And while I try so hard to get her
The three of us are gonna have the time of our lives together
The time of our lives together
The time of our lives together
The time of our lives
Everybody take a look at this
Everybody just come on
And say you're right, oh
Everybody lay the blame on me
Everybody take a bow
And say goodnight
'Cause when I hear those words
Talkin' about me I turn red
I turn red
And when I say my lines
You start to doubt me in your head
In your head
Anybody wanna take a swing
Anybody wanna say
Say I'm wrong, oh
Anybody think I'm a hypocrite
Anybody thought that way
All along
'Cause when I take the stage
I see the people's eyes look down
Eyes look down
And when the curtain falls
My lungs fill up and I start to drown
I start to drown
'Cause I know it's my problem
That this does not involve them
And there's no one saying I am not the one
But if you'll take my confession
I think I've learned my lesson
And I won't have to face the awful truth
That I am failing you
I'm gonna take a little break
I'm gonna take some time
To rehearse, oh
I'm gonna try to tone it down
I'm gonna do my best
Not to make it worse
'Cause I know it's my problem
But this does not involve them
And there's no one saying I am not the one
And when things are set in motion
I'll sail across the ocean
And I won't have to face the awful truth
That I am failing you
This girl wants to give you her heart, so you take it
She wants to be next to you 'til you die
You tell her she's nothing short of amazing
But you've got another woman on the side
It's about time that you realize
You don't know anything about love
You don't know anything about love
No, no, no, no, no, no
If hold her hand like you're playing red rover
You might as well send another woman right over
And when she breaks through you're gonna take her right back with you
You don't know anything about love
You don't know anything about love
No, no, no, no, no, no
You don't know anything about love
You don't know anything about love
No, no, no, no, no, no
I got a plan this morning
I got a man for the job, and it's me
Yeah, baby, it's me
I've got a guy for you
I'm gonna try so hard to make you believe
That, baby, it's me
And I know I'm going nowhere
And I know I'm nothing to see
And you know you could do better
But I want you baby with me
I'll make you realize
When you look in my eyes you will see
That, baby, it's me
I've got a mind to tell you
The guy you're trying to find has been found
Can't you see?
That, baby, it's me
And you know I'm going nowhere
And you know I'm nothing to see
And I know you could do better
But I want you baby with me
You say you understand
You say you found a man
And I can't believe
That, baby, it's me
And I know I'm going nowhere
And I know I'm nothing to see
You know I could not do any better
But I want you, baby with me
Oh, I want you, baby with me
Oh, I want you, baby with me
The sun has died and the land turned brown
And all the people are looking down
And the sky is blackened out
And this tower is falling down
There she was just hanging out
Here at the end of the world
She looks in my eyes and deep in my soul
I give her a smile, it's all I need to know
Oh, am I forgiven?
Now the water just starts to rise
With the sound of the people's cries
I'm afraid of the meeting my demise
But I take one look at the girl
Here at the end of the world
Here at the end of the world
Now there's fire raining down from heaven
And there's brothers preaching Armageddon
Tell me, girl, oh, am I forgiven?
Now the stars are falling down toward
As she pulls me closer next to her
And I take one last look up at the girl
Here at the end of the world
Here at the end of the world
I feel like I'm falling
Falling ever more in love
The night is coming quickly now
But sunrise will follow soon enough
And you are looking up at me
And your eyes make me feel at home
And I could stay here for all time
You know I would hate to go alone
When I hold you in my arms
It's like nothing else surrounds me
And when you take me by the hand
Everything's the way it ought to be
I was destined to be lonely
But you went and ruined all those plans
The mere idea of love was such a mystery
But suddenly I completely understand
When I hold you in my arms
It's like nothing else surrounds me
And when you take me by the hand
Everything's the way it ought to be
And every day it's getting better and better
And everybody knows I'm so far gone
When I hold you in my arms
It's like nothing else surrounds me
And when you take me by the hand
Everything's the way it ought to be
When I hold you in my arms
I can't believe how lucky I am
And you and I should be together
So won't you stay with me for as long as you can
