Must you always cause a fuss?
Isn’t having her enough?
Perhaps I just don’t get this stuff.
I mean, it certainly seems simple enough.
But you will always make it tough.
Careless boy, don’t you know how to treat a girl?
While I look on, you win the day,
And then you throw it all away.
Why do you bother, if you don’t intend to stay?
As if she’s just a game to play.
Silly boy, don’t you know how to treat a girl?
Kiss her, love her, hold her close,
Don’t you know that when she’s far away that’s when you love her the most?
Stupid boy, don’t you know how to treat a girl?
Keep her near you in your dreams
It’s really not as hard as it seems.
For someone who’s been given such a chance,
You leave without a second glance,
I really just don’t understand,
But you’re just a boy and not a man.
Still, I’ve seen bigger men than you
Throw away somebody who
I saw as perfect, and still I watch
All alone with just my thoughts-
That I could be a bigger “man”, a kinder love, a better plan,
That I could be much better than
A careless boy who’ll be a careless man.
Silly boy, don’t you know how to treat a girl?
Careless boy, don’t you know how to treat a girl?
Lucky boy, don’t you know how to treat a girl?
I do.
