[Verse 1]
I tried to paint a picture of you to prove I still think of you
But the face I drew, it more resembled mine
Went to buy you some nice things, but bought a record by The Kinks;
A band you have always told me does not appeal to you in any way
[Chorus]
When will I ever get it right?
Maybe I’ll never treat you right
[Verse 2]
I meant to tell you how I felt, but I started talking to someone else
About some brilliant bullshit record I’ve been working on for years
The love songs all go unreleased, B-sides of lesser memories
And yet you have been there for me since the very first record I ever wrote myself
[Chorus]
When will I ever get it right?
Maybe I’ll never treat you right
My eyes won’t settle anywhere, my mind is in the atmosphere
When will I ever treat you right?
[Bridge]
Oh oh, you know, I can be romantic
Oh oh, you know, I can wear nice clothes
Oh oh, you know, I can be romantic
Oh oh, you know
I tried to paint a picture of you to prove I still think of you
But the face I drew, it more resembled mine
Went to buy you some nice things, but bought a record by The Kinks;
A band you have always told me does not appeal to you in any way
[Chorus]
When will I ever get it right?
Maybe I’ll never treat you right
[Verse 2]
I meant to tell you how I felt, but I started talking to someone else
About some brilliant bullshit record I’ve been working on for years
The love songs all go unreleased, B-sides of lesser memories
And yet you have been there for me since the very first record I ever wrote myself
[Chorus]
When will I ever get it right?
Maybe I’ll never treat you right
My eyes won’t settle anywhere, my mind is in the atmosphere
When will I ever treat you right?
[Bridge]
Oh oh, you know, I can be romantic
Oh oh, you know, I can wear nice clothes
Oh oh, you know, I can be romantic
Oh oh, you know
