Maybe I'll treat you better 

Maybe I'll be your friend 

Maybe I'll wear your sweater 

Maybe I'll find some time 

To go shopping 

And buy you nicer clothes 

'Cause the ones you've got have got to go 

I'll cook your dinner 

Put some meat on those bones 



That's the least I could do 

I'd be so good for you 



I build you up 

I'll be the best 

You'd have it all 

If we were, if we were 

You'd never be 

So damn depressed 

If we were, if we were 

I build you up 

You'd never rest 

If we were, if we were 

We'd be the most beautiful mess 

If we were forever... 



Maybe I'll do your laundry 

Maybe I'll scratch your back 

Tell you I adore you 

Make you feel like a man 

And all of that 

Now wouldn't that be nice? 

And you've got a life, wouldn't think less 

I'll drive you crazy for the rest of your life 



That's the least I could do 

I'd be so good to you 



I build you up 

I'll be the best 

You'd have it all 

If we were, if we were 

You'd never be 

So damn depressed 

If we were, if we were 

I build you up 

You'd never rest 

If we were, if we were 

We'd be the most beautiful mess 

If we were forever... 



You don't realize what your missing 

All the huggin', all the kissin' 

Shut up and listen to me 



But we're not 

I forgot 



I build you up 

I'll be the best 

You'd have it all 

If we were, if we were 

You'd never be 

So damn depressed 

If we were, if we were 

I build you up 

You'd never rest 

If we were, if we were 

We'd be the most beautiful mess 

If we were forever... 



You don't realize what your missing 

All the huggin', all the kissin' 

Shut up and listen to me 



But we're not 

I forgot
