Maura, Maura, you're a lovely girl But you're hiding hurt I can tell Oh, you're daddy ran off with a younger girl And you're friends are all on d** as well Maura, Maura, it's a living hell but I'm striving hard to crack your shell It's a dirty job but someone's got to try And it may as well be a fool like I 'Cause I need, to be needed I love to be loved But at the back of my mind I know that being kind ain't enough Maura, Maura, you're a beauty queen The kind my eyes have never seen And I'm working flat out to maybe keep you keen But I don't want a bit part in this scene
Maura, Maura, when you talk with me I feign to listen patiently But I could never judge you that's a guarantee And I hope the same rules apply for me 'Cause I need to be needed I love to be loved But at the back of my mind I know that being kind ain't enough Ain't enough, ain't enough 'Cause I need you to need me I'd love you to love But if I just speak my mind I feel that being kind ain't enough Maura, Maura, you're a lovely girl But you're hiding hurt I can tell Now your lover's run off with a younger girl And he's taken all your d** as well
