Sometimes I wonder how to just get by
And everything drives me mad
I need something just like a miracle
Or I'm not sure if I could carry on
There is something coming to my mind
And I guess it could turn me on
If you would try to be just a little more kind
I'm sure that it would turn me on

And you might think, Oh my
Oh what a crazy guy
Just talking big 'bout heart and soul
I got news for you
You're not getting through
So count me out of your game

You're looking kind of strange don't trust in me
As if it's just a chestnut joke
The doubt is written on your face
For me it's like an open book
Once it seemed that I could turn you on
You made it clear you were drawn to me
But have I ever got that feeling right
Or was it only fantasy

Now you're tired of
All that same old stuff
Just talking big 'bout heart and soul
I got news for you
You're not getting through
So count me out of your game

Why do you act in this peculiar way
And raise those walls around yourself
I was afraid just like you
I guess I must accept it's true
Been a bore all by myself
most of the time a cross-patch, too
At last I've got to drop that stuff
'Cause now I've got a crush on you

Do you still think, Oh my
Oh what a crazy guy
Just talking big 'bout heart and soul
Why not try a smile
And share that risk for a little while
Don't leave me standing in the rain
Don't you leave me standing
Standing in the rain
