Candlelight and Roses
The last thing the world needs is another tortured love song
So why should I write this song for you?
And if I did, it'd all come out wrong
So tell me, what's a girl to do?
We've all heard the tunes about forever
But forever won't get me through the night
So how 'bout we knock it off and just suffice to say
That, yeah, you're okay, now let's get on with our lives
I've suffered my fair share of pining
Didn't get me anywhere but here
So tell me what's the sense in whining
About some long lost loved one that you hold so dear
If he didn't call you in the morning
Didn't care enough to stay the night
You could sit up all night writing maudlin melodies
But let's be honest, it's just not worth the time
We don't need candlelight and roses
And shut the fuck up about romance
Give me a call when you've got your shit figured out
And if I'm not home, you may have lost your chance
As far as love songs go, I think I'm gonna pass
So why should I write this song for you?
And if I did, it'd all come out wrong
So tell me, what's a girl to do?
We've all heard the tunes about forever
But forever won't get me through the night
So how 'bout we knock it off and just suffice to say
That, yeah, you're okay, now let's get on with our lives
I've suffered my fair share of pining
Didn't get me anywhere but here
So tell me what's the sense in whining
About some long lost loved one that you hold so dear
If he didn't call you in the morning
Didn't care enough to stay the night
You could sit up all night writing maudlin melodies
But let's be honest, it's just not worth the time
We don't need candlelight and roses
And shut the fuck up about romance
Give me a call when you've got your shit figured out
And if I'm not home, you may have lost your chance
As far as love songs go, I think I'm gonna pass
