I've got a life in my hands I barely know what I'm doing She doesn't quite understand This is not like the movies where everything fades to black And it's all happy endings but that's just pretending 'Cause the world doesn't work like that It's always changing She's sick of waiting Her patience is over And she can see the other side tonight Her head needs my shoulder But I don't have the heart to tell her She takes me way too serious I'm just someone who's out of his league She takes me way too seriously You'd think by now she would know That I'm hardly deserving My kind of love doesn't always show 'Cause it's under the surface where everything tends to stay I can never be lonely if nobody knows me But I wish that it wasn't this way I'm thinking of changing She's sick of waiting Her patience is over And she can see the other side tonight Her head needs my shoulder But I don't have the heart to tell her She takes me way too serious I'm just someone who's out of his league She takes me way too seriously I didn't mean to lead you on I never meant to start a fight But everything I do is wrong I take myself too seriously Her patience is over And she can see the other side tonight Her head needs my shoulder But I don't have the heart to tell her She takes me way too serious I'm just someone who's out of his league I can't be all I wanted to be She takes me way too seriously
