Stand there like a ghost shaking from the rain (rain)

She'll open up the door and say Are you insane ('ane)?

Say it's been a long 6 months

And you were too afraid to tell her what you want

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl

And then you say

I want you for worse or for better

I would wait forever and ever

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would wait forever and ever

And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl

Remind her how it used to be (Yeah, yeah)

With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks (cheeks)

Tell her how you must have lost your mind. (Uh-uh)

And you left her all alone, and never told her why (why)

And that's how it works

That's how you lost the girl

And now you say

I want you for worse or for better

I would wait forever and ever (ever and ever)

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together (together)

I would wait forever and ever (ever and ever)

And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl

And you could know (Oh-oh Oh Oh)

That I don't want you to go oh-oh

Remind me how it used to be

Pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks

And say you want me

And then you say

I want you for worse or for better (for worse or for better)

I would wait forever and ever

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I want you forever and ever

And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl

That's how it works

That's how you got the girl
