I don't know what other people see
Or what they think is love
But I know what it means to me
I fall in love so easily

And it's hard to let your guard down
Something you never wanted to
But I gave you my heart and if you turned away
I guess I'd be screwed, but...

I'm a hopeless romantic
You're just hopeless

Beer and wine does me fine but
It doesn't always do
When I get back up and dust off
I always come back to you.

I'm my own man with my own plan
I can't do the things you want me to
I'm kinda lazy and I kinda stink
But I'll clean myself up for you

    General Comment:i am in the same boat as you, blu girl---i just got rejected by a hopeless bastard, too-

    i love the part at the end where he talks about cleaning himself up and all---in other words,when you fall in love, it just makes you want to be the best version of yourself---and of course the other person is completely oblivious to your efforts : (
    great song, great band

    General Comment:A wonderful, simple, heart-sick anthem. It wants to end after the first chorus, though, because it never develops past that (nor does it need to, it's so powerful up to that point). I know two-minute songs that are too long and seven-minute songs that are too short. Listen to how long it wants to be.

    General Comment:Yeah, the song is definitely about me. Being the pathetic man I am, I can relate to this way too much.
