How You Get the Girl

Stand there like a ghost, shaking come the rain, rain

She'll open up the door and say, "are you insane-ane?"

Say it's been a long six months

And you were too afraid to tell her what you want, want

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl

And then you say

"I want you for worse or for better

I would wait

Forever and ever

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would wait

Forever and ever"

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl, oh

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

Remind her how it used to be, be, yeah

With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks, cheeks

Tell her how you must've lost your mind

When you left her all alone and never told her why, why

And that's how it works

That's how you lost the girl

And now you say

"I want you for worse or for better

I would wait

Forever and ever (ever and ever)

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would wait

Forever and ever"

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl, oh

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl, yeah

And you know, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh

That I don't want you to go, oh

Remind me how it used to be

Pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks

And say you want me, yeah

And then you say

"I want you for worse or for better (worse or for better)

I would wait

Forever and ever (ever and ever)

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would wait

Forever and ever"

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl (get the girl)

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works

That's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works

That's how you got the girl
