Now I know I'm not the sort   Of guy who'll sit and talk 'bout school   It's true      And I know it seems unplanned   With my piano here at hand   But I've got something I want to ask you      And if I had a pound for every   Time you turned me down,   I'd have one pound fifty   In my bank account right now.   The world can see   We're not that different, you and me   So let's get together, show the world   How different we can be,   oh oh oh      And I know that in the past   Your answer's no when I have asked   But still,   Hope springs eternal   That one day you'll feel maternal   And there's a hold within your sould that I can fill.      So I'll ask again if you will go out with me   Even though I know deep down what the answer's gonna be   My girl until we die,   If I kill a man be my alibi   But please just let me know   Tell me yes or no,   oh oh oh
