Baby we can talk all night 

But that ain't gettin us nowhere 

I told you everything I possibly can 

There's nothing left inside of here 



And maybe you can cry all night 

But that'll never change the way I feel 

The snow is really piling up outside 

I wish you wouldn't make me leave here 



I poured it on and I poured it out 

I tried to show you just how much I care 

I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout 

But you've been cold to me so long 

I'm crying icicles instead of tears 



And all I can do is keep on telling you 

I want you, I need you 

But-there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you 

Now don't be sad 

'Cause two out of three ain't bad 

Now don't be sad 

'Cause two out of three ain't bad 



You'll never find your gold on a sandy beach 

You'll never drill for oil on a city street 

I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks 

But there ain't no Coup de Ville hiding at the bottom 

of a Cracker Jack box 



I can't lie, I can't tell you something I'm not 

No matter how I try 

I'll never be able to give you something 

Something that I just haven't got 



There's only one girl that I'll ever love 

And that was so many years ago 

And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart 

She never loved me back 

Ooh I know 

I remember how she left me on a stormy night 

She kissed me and got out of our bed 

And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door 

She packed her bags and turned right away 



And she kept on telling me 

She kept on telling me 

She just kept telling me 

I want you, I need you 

But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you 

Now don't be sad 

'Cause two out of three ain't bad 



I want you, I need you 

But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you 

Now don't be sad 

'Cause two out of three ain't bad 



Baby we can talk all night 

But that ain't getting us nowhere
