Testi musica canzoni

Paul Foglino

I always knew you were too good for me

I always knew you knew it too

I did what I could, I knocked on wood, I hoped
you understood

But I could never measure up to you

Now it scares me when I hear you talk

I know I never had a chance

But I'd rather be a nickel on the sidewalk

Than a penny in a rich man's pants

Now you've got someone to take care of you

He gives you everything you need

All those pretty things, engagement rings, all
tied up in strings

I only gave you what I got for free

I always knew you were too good for me

That's what you always used to say

It's so hard to protect your self respect,

in fact that's all I kept

And that's the only thing you gave away
