Lyrics
Verse 1
Sitting here alone thinking about the mess
The way you made a home and tightened up my chest
I won't rest until I am my best for you
Wasted time and looks and all the idle talk
"Til something came along and suddenly raised the stock
I won't stop until I am my best for you
Chorus
If I don't wait for the moon there'd be no sense in howling
And if I just stay in my den then, what's the use in prowling?
I'll open my eyes and see that everything I need
Is sitting here in this room
Maybe baby then I'd be good to you
Verse 2
Some look, some leap, some sit around
Some build up walls that come tumbling down
Some take the blame for wandrin' around
Once in love is not enough to get a taste
I want to take the road at a familiar pace
To do it without you would be such a waste.
Chorus
Bridge
When I'm bad
Everybody else seems so good
'Cause being bad
Is so often misunderstood
If I had
The chance to take it back then I would
Then maybe then I wouldn't turn your poor poor heart to wood
Chorus
