What you doing with that stupid little girl?

Stop your fooling, don't you know its gonna hurt?

When she leaves you, and you gave all you could give

You'll be hurting for the one you should be with

How are you gonna deal with this?

How many times before you slip?

You made a wager with a kiss

Now you're the new name on her lips

This is the real thing at your door

Big wave breaking on the shore

But are you gonna sink or swim?

Hold on tight, don't fall in

Hey what you doing with that stupid little girl?

Stop your fooling, don't you know its gonna hurt?

When she leaves you, and you gave all you could give,

You'll be hurting for the one you should be with

Jesus save this heart of gold

Take the time to save a soul

Will he bend or will he crack?

Save this yearling from the pack

He's not aware of anything

Sure as summer follows spring

Doesn't know where he's coming from

Reaching perfection takes too long

yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah (repeat)

Hey what you doing, you've got so much to live for

The world is turning till it can't turn anymore

This fire is burning, it will burn forever more

So whatcha doing with that stupid little girl?

Stop your fooling, don't you know its gonna hurt?

When she leaves you, and you gave all you could give,

You'll be hurting for the one you should be with
