Lyrics:

While I was looking out for my defense

Couldn't say the story made much sense

I'm getting splinters sitting on this fence

About you

 

Second nature makes the heart belie

Fortune follows the resilient guy

Would anybody blame me for trying

To doubt you

 

You don't need to know, I won't let it show

I'm all about you

Words left best unsaid, worry not your pretty head

But it's all about you

 

Eleven-thirty makes the whiskey sweet

A broken B string hastens sleep

Another melody I won't complete

Without you

 

And when the solitude has had its due

Just when I think I've got nothing to prove

This ain't the place I thought you could get me

Down to

 

You don't need to know, I won't let it show

I'm all about you

Words left best unsaid, worry not your pretty head

But it's all about you

 

Around the table goes the chance to see

That second comings keep the faithless free

But its not about the why or where

But how to

 

You don't need to know, I won't let it show

I'm all about you

Words left best unsaid, worry not your pretty head

But it's all about you
