Stand there like a ghost shaking from the rain
She'll open up the door and say "You're insane."
Say it's been a long 6 months
And you were too afraid to tell her what you want
And that's how it works
That's how you get the girl
And then you say
I want you for worse or for better
I would wait forever and ever
Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I would wait forever and ever
And that's how it works
That's how you get the girl, girl
And that's how it works
That's how you get the girl, girl
Remind her how it used to be
With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks
Tell her how you must have lost your mind
And you left her all alone, and never told her why
And that's how it works
