You say, "I'd best be going 'cause it's getting late"
And I say, "Why don't I walk you home 'cause it's on the way"
But the last time that we made love, you left in tears
So this time, you're wondering how to leave it here
And I haven't seen you since last winter break
And I know that I broke your heart
But always such a smart one, always so intelligent
You must know that I took it hard
Oh, baby, I think we both know
This is the love that we won't get right
Still, if you said that you wanted
I know I'll always have one more try
Oh, baby, I think we both know
This is the love that we won't get right
Still, if you said that you wanted
I know I'll always have one more try

You pull that face like, "Here we go again"
So I pull a flask out the back of my jeans
And then you take a pull, and in my mind, we're in my bed
And I'm pulling your sweater up over your head
And I haven't seen you since last winter break
And I know that you hate how that went
But always such a smart one, always so intelligent
You must know what's happening
Oh, baby, I think we both know
This is the love that we won't get right
Still, if you said that you wanted
I know I'll always have one more try
Oh, baby, I think we both know
This is a love that we won't get right
Still, if you said that you wanted
I know I'll always have one more try
Oh, it's magnetic, isn't it?
The sense of something underneath the surface
When you're laying on thin ice
Just a little bit masochistic, a tentative ellipsis
The parting of your lips and the ache in your eyes
♪
But I think I'm gonna kiss you
All despite what we both know
This is a love that we won't get right
Still, if you said that you wanted
I know I'll always have one more try
Oh, baby, I think we both know
This is a love that we won't get right
Still, if you said that you wanted
I know I'll always have one more try
I know I'll always have one more try
