That girl who'

[Verse 2]
             
When I moved a

             
way from home,

         
 100 miles or 

so,
             
I knew a chang

             
e had grown in

            
side my awkwar

              
dly long limbs

     
 and bones
             
That girl who'

             
s next to me, 

            
she's friendly

              
 and thoughtfu

      
l and quite aw

fully pretty,
             
But all she ha

             
s to say is a 

            
meat head-them

              
ed monologue o

  
n why Brad ran

 away

[Chorus]
             
She said, "All

             
 I can hope fo

            
r is for me to

     
 get better,
             
because all I 

             
can take is no

    
 more.
             
I'll win him b

             
ack again, we'

            
ll be lovers, 

     
best friends.
             
He won't need 

             
no other woman

            
 like he did w

              
ay back when h

              
e was with me.
            
He needed more

      
 than me
             
I'm friendly a

             
nd thoughtful 

    
and quite awfu

lly pretty,
             
But he needed 

         
more than me."

[Bridge]
             
When I felt th

es
             
That girl who'

           
s next to me, 

             
she don't know

             
 her worth in 

     
this town,
            
because her fa

             
ce starts to s

              
hine when that

 
 meat head beh

ind me
             
Is grinning as

            
 he's checking

     
 her out

[Chorus]
             
I said, "All I

             
 can hope for 

            
is for you to 

    
get better,
             
Because all I

I'll hide wher
