I can’t possibly get what I want from you

In my dreams, it felt like love…

You were the one that would make it all ok,

Make all of my troubles go away,

You got too close, everything’s going to change.


I can’t possibly get what I want from you,

So I might try something different,

But there are rules I should follow, too,

Just what should I do?


I said you were perfect, but

I can’t possibly get what I want from you,

So there is only one thing I can do:

I’ll keep burning bridges, because

It’s just what I got to do,

I’m feeling scared and blue.


In my dreams, you were the one,

But you were just another dream fallin’ through,

You were on such on a pedestal, I didn’t think that over,

I don’t know how you’re feeling, but I’m not feeling the same that you do.


So I got another one, this time it’s true.

Wait, wait! I should think this over,

It’ll be different this time,

Just give it time and I’ll be feeling blue…

I can’t possibly get I want from another one,

If I couldn’t get it from you…


I know you’re not perfect, but

Maybe I can possibly get what I want from you,

So there is only one thing you can do:

Start a fire, to burn a bridge,

That’s just what I got to do.

Give it time, you won’t be feelin’ blue…


In my daydreams, you were the one,

But you were just another dream fallin’ through,

You were on such on a pedestal that can only lead to feeling blue.

In my daydreams, I didn't need another one,

But I didn’t think it through,

Of course, there’s always another one!


I said you were perfect, but

Now I know the truth,

So there is only one thing I can do,

I'll keep burning bridges, because

That’s just what I go to do, and I ain’t feeling blue…

I said you were perfect, but

I can’t possibly get what I want from you.

So, I’m done with you!
