So what if I'm right?
I am desperate, honey
For a respite from me
I was bathed in light
And I felt so ugly
When you said you loved me
(Scratch that)
The way I was
(My fault)
Having fun
(Scratch that)
Having fundamental sentimental thinking
What I'm thinking 'cause I think that we should
(Backtrack)
Take me back to the bedroom
Every night was a chess move right on cue
I was hoping to let you down
(It's all too much. Take me back to your room.)
Five bucks says I'm right
I am restless, honey
This is easy money
I'm so brave I might
Keep you guessing, honey
When you're feeling lucky
(Scratch that)
The way I was
(My fault)
Destroying us
(Scratch that)
And modern love's just
(My fault)
Not enough
Take me back to the bedroom
Every night was a chess move right on cue
I was hoping to let you down
(It's all too much. Take me back to your room.)
I'm not here to impress you
Or even come to the rescue
When I do, I'm only looking to dress you down
(It's all too much. Take me back to your room.)
And the stress I'm under now
Back onto the sympathy prowl
In a western little town
She told me what this song was about
And I can't unhear it now
And I hate the here and now
And I wait for it to clear up
But it just keeps coming down
Down
Take me back to the bedroom
Every night was a chess move right on cue
I was hoping to let you down
(It's all too much. Take me back to your room.)
I'm not here to impress you
Or even come to the rescue
When I do, I'm only looking to dress you down
(It's all too much. Take me back to your room.)
