lyrics

Started out good. Started out bad. I still wanted a taste of what I already had. The fruit is perfect when it falls from the tree. And spoiled by the time it gets to me. It's the dilemma of girls and boys for centuries. Should I be with you? Should I forget about me? First it fells right then you stay up all night worrying. It's the awful truth of loving. Could have been noble, but it started out bad. The peach is perfect when it falls from the tree. And bruised by the time it gets to me. Do I really know you? Do you really need me. First it feels right then you write a novel worrying about the awful truth of loving. And by the time you bid your time a year goes by and you don't act any older. I wanted to be sweet so you won't disappoint me. I want it to be sweet so you won't disappoint me. And when the stakes are high I'm careless with the dice. And now it seems like I'm pushing my luck all the time. All the new thinking is about individuality.
