FAKING IT ALL FOR YOU

10 MILES EAST & 8 MILES WEST
YOU SETTLED FOR ME BUT YOU WANTED THE BEST
NOW DISAPPOINTMENT IS A TOP TEN WORD 'ROUND HERE

YOU GO FOR THE GOLD, YOU GO WITH A SMILE
I DON'T MIND LOSING IF I DO IT WITH STYLE
BUT NOW I'M LAST YEAR'S FASHION
SO CASH ME OUT & START AGAIN

SOME MISPLACED AFFECTION WITH A BAD CONNECTION
I'VE GOT ONE CONFESSION BUT I'LL KEEP YOU GUESSING

YOUR PROM NIGHT GOWN, MY PERMANENT FROWN
I LOVE MY HOME BUT I HATE THIS TOWN
BUT SOMEHOW WHEREVER YOU GO I'LL ALWAYS BE AROUND

I'LL BURY MY BEST & WAKE UP TO WORST
I'M HALF IN A FIT & I CAN'T MAKE IT WORK
THAT WAS MY FINAL STRAW SEEMS LIKE THIRTEEN YEARS AGO

SOME MISPLACED AFFECTION WITH A BAD CONNECTION
I'VE GOT ONE CONFESSION BUT I'LL KEEP YOU GUESSING
WHEN YOU'RE READY & WILLING, I'M ALL STALLED & CHILLING
WE'RE UNSTUCK LIKE FLU, TODAY I'M FAKING IT ALL FOR YOU
