lyrics

the girl who's never satisfied
was playing a 'bit part' in my life
now i'm thinking about her day and night
i can't hold back, i'm hypnotised

today's a disappointment, yesterday's long gone
tomorrow waits for her, but won't be waiting long
she breathes the whole thing in, in time for moving on

but when the whole world loves her
how can i hope to keep her?
how can i ever hope to make it through?
but you can't blame me for trying
it won't stop me from trying

the girl who's never satisfied
her intentions will not be denied
no one's turned her down, though some have tried
so many tried, so few survived

the sunday morning sun comes streaming in the room
she comes alive at night, sleeps 'til the afternoon
i can't help thinking it's too much, too fast, too soon

'cos when the whole world loves her
how can i hope to keep her?
how can i ever hope to make it through?
but you can't blame me for trying
it won't stop me from trying

stay for a while, in a sympathetic smile..
smile? smile!

the girl who's never satisfied's
got nothing left to analyse
and though i'm thinking about her day and night
before too long she'll say goodbye
goodbye? goodbye!
