It's Not Complicated

Oh, why is it so hard to see?
So difficult to understand?
I said I want to be your only one
But you don't seem to think I can
What am I doing wrong?
Did I put us in reverse?
You say this is as good as it gets
When it couldn't get much worse
Oh, it's not complicated
Did you hear the words I said?
No, it's not complicated
What goes on inside your head I don't know
I'm just trying to help you see I'm yours
I thought you knew
No, it's not complicated
But maybe it's just too complicated for you
I used to think that this was meant to be
Why have I so much to prove?
You should know you can depend on me
Look at all I've ever done for you now
You've got a fear of commitment
That's something I can understand
But this time it's different
You're not stumbling into sinking sand
Oh, it's not complicated
Did you hear the words I said?
No, it's not complicated
What goes on inside your head I don't know
I'm just trying to help you see I'm yours
I thought you knew
No, it's not complicated
But maybe it's just too complicated for you
What'll it take for you to believe me
Oh, it's not complicated
Did you hear the words I said?
No, it's not complicated
What goes on inside your head I don't know
I'm just trying to help you see I'm yours
I thought you knew
No, it's not complicated
But maybe it's just too complicated for you
Too complicated for you
What am I supposed to do now?
The only one I want is you
Why is it so complicated for you?

I know you wanted some kind of hero
A young de Niro
That's not quite what you get from me
You look aghast, like I'm some kind of weirdo
Worth less than zero
Well, what did you expect for free?
So my posture isn't perfect
Like those studs upon the screen
Could you step back into the real world?
I'm not the pin-up in your magazine, no
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
Guess it's true
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
Can't you see?
Oh...
I know tonight again I'll get your once-over
That I'm mediocre
Your looks and words will say to me
We're only going out for chips, then back to your sofa
I'll wear this pullover
And, no, it isn't Versace
So my fashion sense is suspect
The catwalks don't call my name
You're gonna have to meet me halfway
It doesn't matter if we're not the same, no
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
Guess it's true
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
Can't you see?
Oh...
Well, what's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
Guess it's true
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
Can't you see?
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
Guess it's true
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
What's wrong with me is what's wrong with you
What's wrong with you is what's wrong with me
Can't you see?
Oh...
What's wrong with me?
Is that what's wrong with you?
Oh
I think everything
Everything wrong with you is everything wrong with me

The Photocopies Michigan
Unapologetically old-school #indiepop in a mid-80s-to-early-90s vein, made without secret plans to fill stadiums (ugh). Think lo-fi #c86 #twee #postpunk #janglepop etc. Originally from London.
