you said, you like control, I said, “yes, it shows,”
the way you’re narrowing your eyes,
& you will be admired, you will be desired,
but that’s the consolation prize,
+++++ I think I know you better than you wanted me to,
+++++ and what’s sadder, I could love you better
+++++ than you want someone to..

you tell me things I know, you say you have to go
somewhere the sun shines every day,
you say I’m not the one, well, maybe I’m the other one, yeah,
maybe I’m the one who gets away..
+++++ now I know you better than you wanted me to,
+++++ and what’s sadder, I could love you better
+++++ than you want someone to..
+++ you will be admired, you will be desired,
+++ that’s the consolation prize,
+++ I know the things you hide, ‘cause, I know the things I hide, yeah,
+++ you think they’re hidden, but you’d be surprised
+++++ how I know you better.. than you wanted,
+++++ and what’s sadder, I could love you better
+++++ than you want someone to,
that’s the kicker, that’s the kicker…
