hey your glass is empty 
it's a hell of a long way home 
why don't you let me take you 
it's no good to go alone 
i never would have opened up
but you seemed so real to me 
after all the bullshit i've heard
it's refreshing not to see 
i don't have to pretend 
she doesn't expect it from me

so don't tell me i
haven't been good to you 
don't tell me i
haven't been there for you
just tell me why
nothing is good enough

hey little girl would you like some candy 
your momma said that it's o k 
the door is open come on outside 
no i can't come out today 
it's not the wind that cracked your shoulder
and threw you to the ground 
who's there that makes you so afraid
you're shaken to the bone 
you know i don't understand 
you deserve so much more than this

so don't tell me why
he's never been good to you 
don't tell me why
he's never been there for you 
and i'll tell you that why
is simply not good enough 
so just let me try
and i will be good to you
just let me try
and i will be there for you 
i'll show you why
you're so much more than good enough
