I paid all my dues

And she wanted to know

↓

That I’d never leave her

  Now I’m ready to go

And strange as it seems

She’s endless to me

↓

She’s just like paperwork

  But harder to read

Patience, my enemy

  And loving’s my friend

  It’s harder to leave

  With my heart on my sleeve

  Than to stay and just pretend

  Oh, she knows me so well

  Oh, she knows me like I know myself

I made all my plans

And she has made hers

↓

She kept me in mind

  But I wasn’t sure

I searched every room

For a way to escape

  But every time I tried to leave

  ↓

She keeps holding on to me for dear life

  And blocking my way

Patience, my enemy

  And loving’s my friend

  It’s harder to leave

  With my heart on my sleeve

  Than to stay and just pretend

  Oh, she knows me so well

  Oh, she knows me like I know myself

  And like the back of her hand

  She already understands everything

  Won’t you stay?

  She says

  And she already knows how it goes

And where she stands

  I’ll stay, anyway

  Cos she knows me so well

  Oh, she knows me like I know myself

  Oh, she knows me so well

  Oh, she knows me like I know myself
