Brad Warnaar - Oh Well lyrics

[Verse 1]: What you did to me made me see myself Something different And though I try to talk sense to myself But I just won't listen Won't you go away, turn yourself in You're no good at confession Before the image that you burned me in Tries to teach you a lesson [Verse 2]: What you did to me made me see myself Something awful A voice once stentorian is now again Meek and muffled It took me such a long time to get back up The first time you did it I spent all I had to get it back, and now it seems I've been out-bidded [Chorus 1]: My peace and quiet was stolen from me When I was looking with calm affection You were searching out my imperfections What wasted unconditional love On somebody Who doesn't believe in the stuff [Verse 3]: You came upon me like a hypnic jerk When I was just about settled And when it counts, you recoil with a cryptic word And leave a love belittled [Chorus 2]: Oh what a cold and common old way to go When I was feeding on the need for you to know me Devastated at the rate you fell below me What wasted unconditional love On somebody Who doesn't believe in the stuff Oh, well
