Here stands a girl who knows exactly what to do
Got her punk ass out of school and she’s never looking back
She held my hand drunken down Swiss Cottage
We talked of bands trying to take back what I’d started

But Frera Frair down the thoroughfare

I told her it would be alright
She didn’t want this friend tonight
I didn’t want to reach out or play about

Now I believed in love because I left mine in the parking lot
Never felt so far from home ringing in the cold New Year
The night before I told my love over the cell phone
I missed her more and how I couldn’t wait to come home

Now how’s that fair, smelling someone else’s hair?

I told her it would be alright
I didn’t want this friend tonight
I didn’t want to reach out or play about

Now I’d guess what the meaning was
But tell me who’s got this all figured out

When you wind me up
I said you wind me up and I’m losing
You wind me up
I said you wind me up and I’m using you
You wind me up
I said you wind me up then I will go

Here stands a girl who knows exactly what to do
Got her punk ass out of school, her fingers running down my back

I told her it would be alright
I didn’t want this friend tonight
I didn’t want to reach out or play about

Now I don’t know what I’ve been told
This love of mine ain't getting old
I never want to reach out or play about again…
