Eventually Lyrics - Brendan Benson

In her past, there's lots of people 

I know them by their names 

Some of them rushed by like water 

And some of them were flames 

Each and all knew a different girl 

Someone I'd never met 

They went with her to parties 

Good times, she won't forget 

And here I come with empty hands 

Ready to receive 

And I just hope she doesn't change her mind 

And wanna leave 

Oh girl, stay right with me 

It's gonna get better eventually 

Oh girl, stay here with me 

It's gonna get better eventually 

I came along when she had offers 

Offers left and right 

I gave her all I had to give 

All my best insight 

Now she knows the uselessness 

The nonsense of it all 

Oh, she understands the ways of men 

Kicking in their stall 

Oh, here I come with empty hands 

Ready to receive 

And I just hope she doesn't change her mind 

And wanna leave 

Oh, girl, you got to stay with me 

I'll get better eventually 

So girl, please stay right here with me 

You'll see a change comin' over me 

And sometimes when I look at her 

I see a different girl 

I wonder what she's thinking 

And if she is not out of my world 

I've got the feeling that I've done harm 

No good there, have I done 

I see a nervous stress that once was mine 

Of which she asks for none 

And here I come with empty hands 

I'm ready to receive 

And I hope that she doesn't change her mind 

And wanna leave 

Girl, you got to stay here with me 

Things are gonna get better eventually 

Girl, please stay with me 

I feel a change comin' over me 

Girl, stay with me 

I'm gonna change, [Incomprehensible] 

Girl, please stay with me 

Oh, things will get better eventually
