lyrics

i’ve never been in the right place at the right time

i keep goin’, goin’, goin’ while i leave a trail of pain behind

and when i get scared i always find a new way out

of sophisticated love… you know i’ve always had my doubts

and i must admit i’ve made my share of bad mistakes

but something tells me if i stay with you

i think i might just suffocate

and i don’t want to suffocate

you suffocate when you’re too careful

 

chorus

careful not to make the same mistakes

oh so careful

careful not to fall for the things that i created in my head

things i should have done instead

before i got so careful

i’ve always been too careful

 

you infect me with your laugh

while i tease you w/ rhymes and riddles

and i’ll keep going, never knowing

that i’m the monkey in the middle

of a sophisticated life

in the past i’ve made mistakes

but you see kids, a dog, a house, a family car

you just can’t seem to wait

so i must admit that in my life there’s only two

reasons i keep going and the second one is you

i use to have a few more… right before

i got so careful

 

chorus

 

i’ve never been in the right place at the right time

i keep goin,’never knowin’ i’m the man you always had in mind

when i get scared i always take a few steps back

i see my life in twenty years when i drop dead of my third heart attack

so there it is, that’s my sophisticated fate

and the only way to look at you and find a way to hesitate

you’re the reason why men hesitate

and this is why they hesitate

they’re careful

 

chorus
