Stop thinking now   Quit second-guessing all your failed relations   With your would've, could've, should've, maybe might-have-been   I'll show you how   Send your feelings out for lubrication   Lose these blues and screw your head on tight again   She cut you bad, your heart is just a scar   But if you could just get mad, you'd be better off by far   What you want is taken   What you need is better circulation   Work that heavy heart and get it light again.      Listen to me now   You suffer from a sadness, apprehension   That if she could read your mind she'd see just how it ought to be   But she's read it all by now   And your style don't get a grip on her attention   She ain't in your state of mind and she don't want to be   You think if she'd just talk, you could explain it all   She'd be polite, but all night she's been hoping you won't call   She'll it's all her fault, she'll always be your friend   Plus loads of shit too dumb to mention   I've been that road and it's paved with good intentions.      Well it's hard to believe   But I'm telling you your heart would soon recover   But you don't want it to, you love this aching agony   'Cause it's noble, but it's true   You won't forsake this pain for other lovers   Happiness would fill your mind with misery   Time will wound all heels, and it ain't pretty   With any luck at all, she'll find some dope that you can pity   Your loss is measured in illusions   And your gain is all in bittersweet intelligence   And your winsome smile will lose some of its innocence   Your winsome smile   Your winsome smile will lose some of its innocence.
