Some sweet perversion 
On the telephone line 
I've been waiting for such a very long time 
For her to be free 

The evening was nice 
But there were too many people 
And all my thoughts so depraved and evil 
Oh Lord, what would she say?

(she says:)" I'm afraid, it's not to be 
You're a sweet guy but you ain't for me 
I live my life in a different way 
You know those things you're thinking 
Are a big mistake"

We stayed out late 'til morning came 
I said, "I'll take you home 
If its all the same" 
Her indifference fills the room"

Some weak seduction on the morning after 
How it slays me every time I touch her 
But she just wants to sleep 

(she says:) "How long 'til you understand 
The last thing that I need is another man 
Didn't you promise to give it a rest 
Right now I need a lover 
Like a hole, like a hole in the chest"

Oh well, can't blame a guy for tryin' 
And I'm smiling even though I'm dying 
To know the love she says will never be 

One last conversation at the crowded bar 
And even thought the music is louder by far 
I hear every word she says 

(she says:) "Don't take it bad, don't worry about it 
You're a friend of mine and there's no way around it 
Sometimes you there early, sometimes you get there late 
But even if you had a chance you never, knew the game"

Little hands, open smile 
I'm glad we got to talk for a while 
I feel okay, yeah I'm feeling better, 
I'll let it go but I'll never say never 
It's okay, yeah it's okay, 
it's okay, it's okay
