butterfly
passed me by
once again. |
all i want is more than you can give. |
all alone.
so far from home.
guess i'll ask you to a show. |
all i want is more than you can...
all i want is more than you can give. |
you said no.
i bet your boyfriend told you that you couldn't go.
i guess i'm not surprised. |
all i want is more than you can...
all i want is more than you can...
all i want is more than you can give. |
shed a tear.
disappear.
say goodbye. |
all i wanted was more than you could...
all i wanted was more than you could...
all i wanted was more than you could...
all i wanted was more than you could give. |
vocals: don, ianj.

freshman year in college i noticed an alterna-punk girl that could have maybe taken the loneliness away from my existence there. every time i saw her in the cafeteria, i couldn't keep my mind off of the possibilities. a couple days after i found about her boyfriend of two and a half years i sat at the bus stop waiting to relieve some stress by going downtown and skateboarding. i pulled out my big green magnum pen and wrote in my notebook: "all i wanted was more than you could give." at that time it was merely a statement saying i just wanted to be more than friends but as i learned more about marin i realized it said that she could never give me what i wanted. she may look good but she can never compare to the beauty of a good personality and a strong will. |
