[Verse 1]
Well, well look at you
Little miss has to pick the wounds
And that’s so literal, and your so critical
Well if you feel like there's cause to be cold you can straddle the stove
I'm a man not a handbag, a friend not a servant
Is it hell being right all the time?

[Chorus]
I wouldn’t call this dating
Ill get to know you the hard way
Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say

[Verse 2]
Well, well, well with a woman like you, who needs to get out of bed?
Well, well, well with a woman like you, who needs to have any friends?
Come whisper in my ear a secret so profound ill forget to write it down
Now i'm left here with the memory of the best and worst thing i'll ever love

[Chorus]
I wouldn’t call this dating
Ill get to know you the hard way
Like seriously that’s what they say
I wouldn’t call this dating
Ill get to know you the hard way
Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say
[Bridge]
Aren’t we a perfect mess
Aren’t we a perfect mess
Aren’t we a perfect mess
Aren’t we a perfect mess

[Chorus]
I wouldn’t call this dating
Ill get to know you the hard way
Like seriously that’s what they say
I wouldn’t call this dating
Ill get to know you the hard way
Life's bittersweet, that’s what they say
That’s what they say
Some things will never change
Some things will never

[Outro]
Aren’t we a perfect mess
Aren’t we a perfect mess
Aren’t we a perfect mess
Aren’t we a perfect mess
