But I'm already there downstairs to meet with her
She could make my life complete
But I'm already there to compete with her

Would have been enough to let me know


Verse 2 (as Verse 1 pattern)

I'm looking all around for you
Find you in the corner bar
But you can't find the keys to your car
She's as sharp as a razor blade
But she could cut my wrists open just the same
