I said no again
Somehow you just don't listen
How many times you turned down
So many rejections by one woman

But here you are at it
Coming back like an addict
Like you get high on nos
Cause I've been quite candid

Once thought you an irritation
With the way you don't give up
Now filled with admiration
Of the way you don't give up

You may lose the war of hearts
But you've won my respect
I guess we want what we want
Love doesn't quite come as we'd expect
