You keep me at arm's lenght
In your quest for pefection
Doing just the minimun
To hold on to my affection
I've waited patiently
Hoping you'll come through
You say you don't want to hurt me
But it's the first thing that you do
I'm tired of having to be
Your emotional insurance policy
You don't love me
But you'll settle for me
I've loved you with a heart so pure
But if you think I'll be waiting
Honey, don't be so sure
The boys you date are beautiful
That's undeniable
But unlike me, they're unreliable
You take for granted
That I'll wait around for you
But honey don't be so sure
