This Charming Girl (Not My Man) Songtext

your failure at trying to lack convention
why is this so beyond your comprehension?



just because you know my name, doesn't mean I'm yours to tame
and just because you say the right things, doesn't mean you make my heart sing

you can give me all the diamonds, left in the abandoned mines
but I still wouldn't be yours and you wouldn't be mine



your smoothing talking lips are not mine to kiss
and I'm ok with those circumstances
I'd rather not argue with you
I've no time for romances


the fact that you cite great poets, doesn't mean one bit
you didn't write that shit, you didn't write any of it

your conquests aren't worth the brag, it's substance that they lack
and your willingness to please makes me feel uneasy



I don't mind your disguise, but I recognize
all the signs you're trying to hide
failure's unsettling when you've made your peace
I'm not yours to keep
I'm not yours to keep
