Stand there like a ghost Shaking from the rain She'll open up the door And say "Are you insane?" Say it's been a long six months And you were too afraid To tell her what you want And that's how it works It's how you get the girl That's how it works It's how you get the girl You say I want you for worse or for better I would weep for ever and ever Broke your heart, I'll put it back together I would weep for ever and ever And that's how it works It's how you get the girl Remind her how it used to be With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks Tell her how you must've lost your mind When you left her all alone and you never told her why And that's how it works That's how you lost the girl I want you for worse or for better I would weep for ever and ever Broke your heart, I'll put it back together I would weep for ever and ever And that's how it works It's how you get the girl, girl, oh And that's how it works It's how you get the girl, girl, yeah yeah And that's how it works That's how you get the girl And that's how it works That's how you get the girl You could know That I don't want to let you go You could know That I don't want to let you go Remind me how it used to be Pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks And you say, you say, you want me And you say, you say, you want me
