I said youre the woman from last night
Standing just to my right
Youre the one that said I was sweet
When I left your kiss in my cheek
And said we could hook up sometime maybe
Well now is a good a time as any
She said I dont mean to offend you
But youre not quite how I remembered you
You seemed to look a lot better then
But I think youre nice as a friend
So pull up a seat and sit down
Were just having a drink and hanging out
So I tried to play it sexy and hurt
She said I came across as an introvert
So I changed to being a deep and profound
Until she asked me if I was feeling down
And when I told her that I was well read
She looked at me and just said : waouf waouf !
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Whatever it is Im not buying
So I phoned her that weekend
She said shes seeing a barman called jonathan
He wears nice clothes and keeps his hair neat
But I could give her a call back next week
So next week were out to coffee
She tells me shes really gone off me
I say gone off me? hey you dont know me
She said exactly so dont phone me
I said you havent even given this a chance
She smiled and looked with a glance and said : waouf waouf !
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Whatever it is Im not buying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Whatever it is Im not buying
When is this loneliness gonna end and
When will they stop crawling about their boyfriends (boyfriends)
When is a girl gonna get with me (me)
There must be one in this city see ? (see)
All I want is something thats real (real)
Im tired of having to spiel (spiel)
Two months later she phones me up now
Saying hey I heard youre doing well now
Lets you and me go out for a meal
cause Ive never told you how I really feel
So how about it and you can meet me
I said which me did you wanna see?
I got a girl now who knows who I am
So I can be my own man Im flattered but
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Whatever it is Im not buying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Youre trying too hard but keep trying
Whatever it is Im not buying
