Nothing Better Lyrics - Give Up - The Postal Service

Will someone please call a surgeon 

Who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart 

That you're deserting for better company 

I can't accept that it's over 

And I will block the door like a goalie tending the net 

In the third quarter of a tied-game rivalry 

So, just say how to make it right 

And I swear I'll do my best to comply 

Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better 

Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together? 

I feel must I interject here 

You're getting carried away feeling sorry for yourself 

With these revisions and gaps in history 

So let me help you remember 

I've made charts and graphs that should finally make it clear 

I've prepared a lecture on why I have to leave 

So please back away and let me go 

I can't my darling I love you so but oh, oh 

Tell me am I right to think that there could be nothing better 

Than making you my bride and slowly growing old together? 

Don't you feed me lines about some idealistic future 

Your heart won't heal right if you keep tearing out the sutures 

I know that I have made mistakes 

And I swear I'll never wrong you again 

You've got allure I can't deny 

But you've had your chance so say goodbye 

Say goodbye
