mediocre man
Take me with you, she says
As I pull out onto the street
I say, there's room in the back
And she smiles and she laughs and says
Thanks, honey, you're sweet
But she stays on the front porch
As I pull away, and that
Happy smile drifts slowly from her face
Because she's going back inside
To a mediocre man
But she's gonna love him
Just as hard as she can
She only falls apart when she's all alone, yeah
She only falls apart when there's nobody home
She's quick to forgive
She's quick to forget
And yet, in her eyes you can see
The ghost of the man
That she wishes he would be
The ghost of the man that he should be
She's going back inside
To her mediocre man
But she's given up loving him
And he doesn't understand
She fell apart when he left her on her own
She fell apart when she let him into her home
Take me with you, she says
As I pull out onto the street
I say, there's room in the back
And she smiles and she laughs and says
Thanks, honey, you're sweet
And she gets into the backseat
As I pull away, and that
Happy smile gets bigger on her face
Because she's given up on her mediocre man
Found someone else to love her as hard as they can
She'll never fall apart again
Not over him
She's over him
As I pull out onto the street
I say, there's room in the back
And she smiles and she laughs and says
Thanks, honey, you're sweet
But she stays on the front porch
As I pull away, and that
Happy smile drifts slowly from her face
Because she's going back inside
To a mediocre man
But she's gonna love him
Just as hard as she can
She only falls apart when she's all alone, yeah
She only falls apart when there's nobody home
She's quick to forgive
She's quick to forget
And yet, in her eyes you can see
The ghost of the man
That she wishes he would be
The ghost of the man that he should be
She's going back inside
To her mediocre man
But she's given up loving him
And he doesn't understand
She fell apart when he left her on her own
She fell apart when she let him into her home
Take me with you, she says
As I pull out onto the street
I say, there's room in the back
And she smiles and she laughs and says
Thanks, honey, you're sweet
And she gets into the backseat
As I pull away, and that
Happy smile gets bigger on her face
Because she's given up on her mediocre man
Found someone else to love her as hard as they can
She'll never fall apart again
Not over him
She's over him
