lyrics
Give her the world, she will want the sky
Give her eternity and she would want to die
And if you give her your soul
She will want your heart
Don’t even go there, no don’t even start
She loves the dark so she’ll turn on every light
she says it’s wrong so you try to make things right
She seems so unhappy
But she loves you just the same
Don’t even go there, no, you’re not to blame
She’s just driven by the need to be dissatisfied
With an unrelenting attraction to the
Other side of every fence
And I know it makes no sense
Try to smooth her way and she’ll say she likes it rough
Give her your all, it’ll never be enough
And you try to laugh it off
But don’t you know it ain’t no joke
All your good will, gone up in smoke
Because she’ driven by the need to be dissatisfied
With an unrelenting attraction to the
Other side of every fence
And I know it makes no sense
She sees the glass half empty and you
You just think it tastes so good
You think that you could make her see the light
But no one could
Because she’ driven by the need to be dissatisfied
With an unrelenting attraction to the
Other side of every fence
And I know it makes no sense
You think that you can make her see the light
But no one could
Give her eternity and she would want to die
And if you give her your soul
She will want your heart
Don’t even go there, no don’t even start
She loves the dark so she’ll turn on every light
she says it’s wrong so you try to make things right
She seems so unhappy
But she loves you just the same
Don’t even go there, no, you’re not to blame
She’s just driven by the need to be dissatisfied
With an unrelenting attraction to the
Other side of every fence
And I know it makes no sense
Try to smooth her way and she’ll say she likes it rough
Give her your all, it’ll never be enough
And you try to laugh it off
But don’t you know it ain’t no joke
All your good will, gone up in smoke
Because she’ driven by the need to be dissatisfied
With an unrelenting attraction to the
Other side of every fence
And I know it makes no sense
She sees the glass half empty and you
You just think it tastes so good
You think that you could make her see the light
But no one could
Because she’ driven by the need to be dissatisfied
With an unrelenting attraction to the
Other side of every fence
And I know it makes no sense
You think that you can make her see the light
But no one could
