Trying Too Hard (Day One)

I said you're the woman from last night Standing just to my right You're the one that said I was sweet When I left your kiss in my cheek And said we could hook up sometime maybe Well now is a good a time as any She said I don't mean to offend you But you're not quite how I remembered you You seemed to look a lot better then But I think you're nice as a friend So pull up a seat and sit down We're just having a drink and hanging out So I tried to play it sexy and hurt She said I came across as an introvert So I changed to being a deep and profound Until she asked me if I was feeling down And when I told her that I was well read She looked at me and just said : waouf waouf ! You're trying too hard but keep trying You're trying too hard but keep trying You're trying too hard but keep trying Whatever it is I'm not buying So I phoned her that weekend She said she's seeing a barman called jonathan He wears nice clothes and keeps his hair neat But I could give her a call back next week So next week we're out to coffee She tells me she's really gone off me I say gone off me' hey you don't know me She said exactly so don't phone me I said you haven't even given this a chance She smiled and looked with a glance and said : waouf waouf ! You're trying too hard but keep trying You're trying too hard but keep trying You're trying too hard but keep trying Whatever it is I'm not buying You're trying too hard but keep trying You're trying too hard but keep trying You're trying too hard but keep trying Whatever it is I'm not buying When is this loneliness gonna end and When will they stop crawling about their boyfriends (boyfriends) When is a girl gonna get with me (me) There must be one in this city see ' (see) All I want is something that's real (real) I'm tired of having to spiel (spiel) Two months later she phones me up now Saying hey I heard you're doing well now Let's you and me go out for a meal 'cause I've never told you how I really feel So how about it and you can meet me I said which me did you want to see?
