Shes a cross between
Emma peel
Gwyneth paltrow
And kathy lee
Shes got a boyfriend
Hes twenty-three
She wont give him up
I cant set him free.
And still he means the world to me
If only I could make him see
If only hed be good to me
But hes the king of tragedy, oh oh.
He calls me on the phone
He needs another loan
Gonna lose his home
He lays it all on me
And I feel so guilty
Wanna tell him no
But he always tricks me
Into letting go.
And still he means the world to me
If only I could make him see
If only hed be good to me
But hes the king of tragedy, oh oh.
Oh, come back to me, yea yea.
We used to call you
Johnny fun
Isnt that ironic
After all youve done
But the doors still open
The way is clear
When you get it together
Ill be here.
And still he means the world to me
If only I could make him see
If only hed be good to me
But hes the king of tragedy, oh oh.
You and me thats all I ever wanted
Cant you see youre all I ever wanted
You and me its all I ever wanted
Cant you see youre all I ever needed, oh oh.
