lyrics

there's no corners in my circle,
i don't fit in this box,
never meant to hurt you,
couldn't stand you fallen down on my...
watch what I do, try and stay next to you,
i know you won't go for the things that could take you where you think you ought a be
with your arms wide open you we're hoping' it be my last stop,
i don't think its over...

it's not you, it's here,
in this whole wild world,
does singular love mean enough this year,
for you my dear,
for you my dear,
for you,

i thought I'd be your savior,
but I'm getting by on my bad behavior,
for you my dear I try to steer clear but I'm hardly able,
i really don't think you can go that far on a diet of broken hearts,
i'll be your gentleman,
you'll be my sunshine,
if we could love like we did at the start,

it's not you, it's here,
in this whole wild world,
does singular love mean enough this year,
for you my dear,
for you my dear,

i try and I try to make things nice,
if it cost me my life,
it's at a discount price,
i try and I try to make things nice
if it cost me my life
it's at a discount price

in this whole wild world
it's not you, it's here
in this whole wild world
it's not you, it's here
