She said, "I've got to be honest, you're wasting your time if you're fishin' around here."
And I said, "You must be mistaken, I'm not foolin' this feelin' is real."
She said, "You've got to be crazy! What do you take me for? Some kind of easy mark?"

"No, you've got wits, you've got looks, you've got passion
but I swear that you've got me all wrong."
I'll be true, I'll be useful, I'll be cavalier, I'll be yours my dear,
I'll belong to you if you just let me through.

This is easy as lovers go so don't complicate it by hesitating.
This is wonderful as loving goes.
This is tailor-made, what's the sense in waiting?

I said, "I've got to be honest, I've been waiting for you all my life."
For so long I thought I was asylum bound, but just seeing you makes me think twice.
And being with you here makes me sane. I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side.

"You've got wits, you've got looks, you've got passion,
but are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?"

    This is one of my favorite songs by Dashboard. I like how it is a convorsation. That's cool I liek songs that do that. Or bands that do that, (TBS, PETTIT PROJECT).
