I tried to be patient
but I waited too long
So I tried to move fast
But you were already gone
Yeah I tried to be right
But I was always wrong...
So I tried to be friendly
but you were so rude
So I tried to play mean but
I couldn't change your attitude

No matter how I tried
I could not break through

It seems that I've been wasting
my time
(And time is money)
I'm so tired of standing in line
(to taste your honey)
Won't you please give me a sign...
Some kind of sign

So I finally did it
I went and bought the lock and key
Ain't no way this time
She's gonna get away from me
But after 24 hours
You know I set the girl free

But I saw something in you
Seemed like something pretty good
Yeah I saw something in you
Could it be, I misunderstood?

Chorus

I thought I saw something good...
