Lyrics
It's just another forlorn Sunday
Another day of the week
Why can't you just be alone some days?
It doesn't mean you're a freak
You can turn the tide
You can make it right
Turn your frown face upside down
It's a children's game
Do you want to play?
It's all I'll ever want
Oh, my love
You're prettier than you think you are
Oh, my love
You're prettier than you think you are
(Da dum da, yeah)
It's a shame that you came so close
To all you ever desired
And then you threw up your hands, screaming
So afraid of the fire
But if you want heat
You can feel the meat
'Cause I'm burning up for you
I am willing, I am able
Just tell me what to do
Oh, my love
You're prettier than you think you are
Oh, my love
You're prettier than you think you are
(Da dum da, yeah)
(Oh, yeah) Oh, my love
You're prettier than you think you are
Oh, my love
You're prettier than you think you are
Oh, my love
You're prettier, you're prettier
Oh, my love
You're prettier, you're prettier
Than you think are
(Da dum da, yeah)
