Desperate and selfish
Say I can’t help it
Hopelessly jealous of the time you spent away
Living the highlife
I find my spotlight
In deranged fantasies of the things you didn’t say

It’s almost too much to take
Loving you baby

I can’t think when I'm in love
It’s never good enough
Why can’t I just close the door
And let the work be the reward

Is there a God or
Is that my upbringing
Telling me to cast aside the little I have earned
I don’t believe in anything yet I don’t
Take the time to find something that maybe I could learn

It’s almost too much to take
Loving you baby

I can’t think when I'm in love
It’s never good enough
Why can’t I just close the door
And let the work be the reward

The work is the reward

I can’t think when I'm in love
It’s never good enough
Why can’t I just close the door
And let myself be more than yours
