Mess When I'm in Love
Stumbling over simple words
Common sense is for the birds
I'm in that place again
Somebody help me quick
I'm losing it
Cause every time the phone don't ring
Every time the day don't bring you
Closer to my touch
I'm out of touch
Yes, I'm a fool with tender tendencies
Romantic incongruities
Standing right here on my knees
I'm yours forever
For the moment
When you're near I must confess
I'm a moron more or less
I guess I'm just a mess when I'm in love
You bring out the best in me
The worst part is it's rapidly
Diminishing with everything
I say or do
But that's nothing new
Cause every time I feel this way
I know that in the end I'll say
I guess I'm just a mess when I'm in love
Yes, I'm a fool with tender tendencies
Romantic incongruities
Standing right here on my knees
I'm yours forever
For the moment
When you're near I must confess
I'm a moron more or less
I guess I'm just a mess when I'm in love
It's nothing personal
It's just my eccentricities
Combined with your propinquity
Propinquity means near to me
And near to me you'll always be
Unapologetically I'm sorry I'm a mess
When I'm in love
Oh, yes, I'm just a mess when I'm love
I guess I'm just a mess
When I'm in love
