I climbed a rope ladder
To your balcony
That was the place
You said you were gonna be
I found out later
You were way across town
You’re trying so hard
To put me in the ground
You’re always saying
It’s only you and me
But everybody knows
I’m just your Plan B
I had enough whiskey
To make a man drown
But you still haven’t got me
Under the ground
I ran into a wall
Cuz you said it was funny
I gave you my heart
I gave you my money
Stuck my head up my ass
To be your clown
But somehow I managed
To stay above ground
Finally figured out
You’re not the whole world
There’s over a billion
Available girls
The sky is blue
And the Earth is round
I got a nice girl
Keeping me above ground

Why aren’t there more people
Like you?
Lovely, kind and gracious in so many things
You do
In this crazy old world, you don’t have a
Counterpart
There’s a sparkle in your soul and twinkle in
Your heart
Why aren’t there more people
Like you?
Quietly shielding others from the pain you’re
Going through
Ignoring smears and rumors that others
Wanna start
You’ve got better things to do than pick their
Hate apart
Why aren’t there more people
Like you?
Instead of looking backward you’re happy
To renew
Now is where we are and this journey is
One-way
The most important places are tomorrow
And today
Why aren’t there more people
Like you?
Your serenity and wisdom enhance my
Point of view
You generate sweet harmony from so much
Disarray
The rhythms of the universe conducting
Your ballet

ibble-snabble wibble-wabble
wicka-wacka woo
I wanna be the man
Who gets to spend my life with you
Sometimes people say
That I don’t make a lot of sense
They say that I’m a stalker
Cuz I stand outside your fence
wimpa-wampa dubba-dampa
bimpy-bampy boo
I’ll be gone tomorrow
If you tell me to
Sometimes I get silly
But I’m serious as hell
Things you make me feel
Are impossible to tell
numble-namble bimble-bamble
limba-lamba loom
Tell me how your presence
Makes a million flowers bloom
No place in the universe
That I’d rather be
Waiting for an angel
Underneath a cherry tree

It takes fifty-seven lies
Just to get you outta bed
Lies are like a fungus
That grows inside your head
You need a journal to keep track of
All the lies you ever said
Once upon a time
There was a girl who loved you true
Now there’s someone in the mirror
But you swear it isn’t you
The lovely thoughts you’re thinking
And those ugly things you do
Your heart is black and rancid
And you can’t erase the stain
You got booze and you got pills
To protect you from the pain
An umbrella in a hurricane
Won’t keep away the rain
Your body and your soul
Are in a nasty civil war
You just keep on doing
Crazy things you did before
There’s gonna come a time
When you can’t take it anymore
You choked to death on love
That you were too afraid to give
On your tombstone it will say
That you had too much pride to live
Some folks choose to die
When it’s too frightful to forgive

Used to make it complicated
Like a hamster spinning round
She taught me how to pause
And to slow it all down
She taught me how to live
With the stillness of a flower
She created a world
Where a minute was an hour
She taught me how to feel
She intensified my view
Until nothing else mattered
We were a nation of two
She taught me how to live
Without giving a care
She taught me how to breathe
When there wasn’t any air
She taught me how float
At the top of the sky
Then she disappeared
And I learned how to cry

Seven little words built the blade
Twisting like a steak knife
In my heart
I really like you for a friend
(I always knew this thing would end)
Seven little words that never fade
Echo like a foghorn
In my head
I really like you for a friend
(Now I have parties to attend)
Seven little words my hell made
Tearing like a buzzsaw
At my soul
I really like you for a friend
(It was amusing to pretend)

A million bloody teardrops
Drying out my soul
A thousand days without you
Ain’t no bottom of the hole
The only thing I have
Is nothing
The only thing I did
Was injure you
The only thing I feel
Is empty
Cuz you’re the only one
Who loved me true
I only know tomorrow
Will be sadder than today
I know I had it all
And I let it slip away
The only thing I have
Is freedom
The only thing I want
Is me and you
The only thing I do
Is break things
The only thing I know
Is I love you
