[Verse 1] You and I have been through this A thousand times before But you don't see it like I see it So you're seeing the door I'm a realist, you're an idealist Searching for the perfect world I tell you now you'll never find it 'Cause it ain't there, girl [Chorus] You're out there looking for your knight in shining armor But the only nights you find are lonely ones I guess you really just don't have that much to offer The kind of man you want to own [Verse 2] I can't do the things you do Can't say the things you say And I can't live the life you've planned Not for a single day Can't you see that I can't be A puppet in your play You better keep on looking, girl I won't stand in your way [Chorus] You're out there looking for your knight in shining armor But the only nights you find are lonely ones I guess you really just don't have that much to offer The kind of man you want to own So get back, girl, I'm telling you To get out of my life And let me go back to the way I was Before I met you [Instrumental] [Chorus] So get back, girl, I'm telling you To get out of my life And let me go back to the way I was Before I met you [Outro] You and I have been through this A thousand times before But you don't see it like I see it So you're seeing the door Well, I'm a realist, you're an idealist Searching for a perfect world I tell you now you'll never find it 'Cause it ain't there, girl You're out there looking for your knight in shining armor But the only knight you find are lonely ones I guess you really just don't have that much to offer The kind of man you want on So get back, girl, I'm telling you To get out of my life And let me go back to the way I was Before I met you Before I met you Before I met you
