The Hippos - When Will I Learn lyrics

rate me

I bought you everything that you asked for,

everything but you wanted more,

I guess it wasn't quite enough.

I did everything that you asked me to,

everything that I could do,

I guess it wasn't quite enough.

I should have acted like a hopeless pessimist,

'cause I know that you're a sucker for that type,

and if I told you I was gonna kill myself,

maybe then you'd comfort me and hold me tight.

Will I ever learn?

I took you every place that you wanted to go,

every single place that I know,

I guess it wasn't quite enough.

I told you everything that you wanted to hear,

I said I loved you in your ear,

I guess it wasn't quite enough.

(Chorus)

No matter what I do

I'll never be with you

and if it ends that way

I guess I'll be okay
