|
you're a beautiful man |
|
was cool to hold you |
|
thought i could have you |
|
boy was i wrong |
|
it was a dirty plan |
|
it's time someone told you |
|
you don't hold the world |
|
in the palm of your hand |
|
it must feel freaky to be so sneaky |
|
i guess you thought i'd never know |
|
the one you loved had split, and he kind liked my shit |
|
so you booked yourself a private show |
|
i know i'm nothing special |
|
i've never been the best |
|
but there are thoughts in my head |
|
and a thump in my chest |
|
i'm a little embarrassed |
|
is this part of your plan |
|
i'm not a cardboard cutout |
|
just a lonely man |
|
whose heart is achin' |
|
you're the reason why |
|
so after all this |
|
did you at least get your guy? |
|
we had a few good laughs |
|
talked for awhile and |
|
walked round the island |
|
hands intertwined |
|
i also lied to you |
|
said i liked your tattoo |
|
i was only tryin' |
|
to be kind |
|
you rose up from the east and set into a jest |
|
it was joking at its worst and trickery at best |
|
now i have come to see the big punchline was me |
|
your magic carpet just a vehicle for jealousy |
|
i know i'm nothing special |
|
i've never been the best |
|
but there are thoughts in my head |
|
and a thump in my chest |
|
i'm a little embarrassed |
|
is this part of your plan |
|
i'm not a cardboard cutout |
|
just a lonely man |
|
whose heart is achin' |
|
