When I feel in love with you I knew you'd learn to love me too,

even if you couldn't stand all the stupid stuff I do.

Believe in me, I love you, too over-stated to be untrue,

as you hold me up next to the light and watch me as I start to come unglued.

I can't see how you'd say I held on too long,

for you see there's no way, I'm not that strong, that strong (I'm not)

So now I come on sugar sweet,

but my best attempts prove weak,

whether I'm holding tight onto your hand

or sucking on your feet

You have no need you come complete

no one ever could compete.

As I dive face-first into the odds I know that there's no chance I'll ever beat.

I can't see how you'd say I held on too long,

for you see there's no way, I'm not that strong, that strong

I can't see how you'd say I held on too long,

for you see there's no way, I'm not that strong, that strong
