[Verse 1]
Listen
I may be wrong but you're missing
There's something wrong you could say
Ruined in a day
You could be the lover of jade
Forever on your own in the shade
Let's do it anyway

[Chorus]
Some people like to deceive you
While others may feel that they need you
Well, I do the best that I can
Keeping my life in my hands

[Verse 2]
And if you feel your cradle rockin, then take the wheel
Don't let me stop you (hang around for awhile)
But stop acting like a child
Every step you take is the one
That's gonna undo what you've done
It could take all day

[Chorus]
Some people like to deceive you
While others may feel that they need you
But I do the best that I can
I keep my world in my hands
