Song Description

Girl is trying to dump guy b/c he's waiting for that magical type of Hollywood romance. She says he'll never find it and end up alone. He argues while lobbying for one last romp in the hay.

Lyrics

She said, "you're never gonna find it."
She said, "it'll never be that clear. And though I wish you well, there's nothing I can do, so why don't you get outta here?"

So I went and sat down in my easy chair, blowing lazy circles in the air. One might think it was because I didn't care. But au contraire, I knew that she was right.

But I said, "No, you don't understand me. I gotta know that this is true and though I love you, girl, I gotta have no doubt, and I got lotsa doubts about you. And I truly think I could believe this if I hadn't had myself a glimpse of what it could be, but hey, this is a bore, let's make out one more time to Bjork."

She said, "I can put my arms around you, but you'll never feel the way you need to feel, so you'll be alone, just waiting for that girl, but she will never ever appear."

Then I said, "I truly think I could believe that if I hadn't had myself a taste of what it should be, but let's stop all of this and let's do it one last time to Styx."
