  • How much reassurance does a man need?
    Why can't I just let a good thing be?
    Is it just me, something don't seem right
    In my whole life I've never been so close to anyone, anything, some girl I know
    I gotta let go and give up the fight
    You keep talking like everything's gonna be alright

    So why do I feel like you're slipping away?
    So dark in my heart girl
    Too many times torn apart girl
    I wanna believe what you're trying to say
    Girl I'm trying to listen
    Don't want my suspicions to drive you away
    Why do I, why do I keep messing with a good thing?
    Why do I feel?

    Trying to understand, explain everything
    Over analyze us like we're some game
    Trying to find pain
    Where there's only love
    It's maybe just that I've never been this far
    Never walked through so many open doors
    And when I get more, it's never enough
    You and me babe
    I know we're right as rain

    So why do I feel like you're slipping away?
    So dark in my heart girl
    Too many times torn apart girl
    I wanna believe what you're trying to say
    Girl I'm trying to listen
    Don't want my suspicions to drive you away
    Why do I, why do I keep messing with a good thing?

    Why do I feel like that when it feels like this?
    Better than the best it's ever been
    Lost in your body here in the dark
    Your fingers, my skin: a match and a spark
    I told myself I'd make a brand new start

    I wanna believe what you're trying to say
    Girl I'm trying to listen
    Don't want my suspicions to drive you away
    Yeah, I'm trying to listen
    Don't want my suspicions to drive you away
    Why do I, why do I keep messing with a good thing?
    Why do I feel?
