Stand there like a ghost
Shaking from the rain, rain
She'll open up the door

And say, are you insane?
Say it's been a long six months
And you were too afraid to tell her what you want

And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl
And then you say


I want you for worse or for better
I would wait for ever and ever

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I want you for ever and ever


And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl



Remind her how it used to be, be
Yeah, yeah
With pictures in frames, of kisses on cheeks, cheeks

Tell her how you must've lost your mind
When you left her all alone
And never told her why

And that's how it works
That's how you lost the girl
And now you say


I want you for worse or for better
I would wait for ever and ever

Broke your heart, I'll put it back together
I would want you for ever and ever


And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl
Yeah yeah


And you could know
That I don't want you to go
Remind me how it used to be

Pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks
And say you want me, yeah, yeah


Cause I want you for worse or for better
I would wait for ever and ever
Broke your heart, I'll put it back together

I would want you for ever and ever

And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl, oh
And that's how it works

It's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works

That's how you got the girl
