Cock Robin

It's just like a man to catch me at my worst
You'd be surprised how I do well
I've finally figured out it's never ever worse
To try to hide only what you can tell
This is not gonna be too easy
I've think I'm way beyond repair
You've been an angel not to be too hard on me
Must be written on our faces, frightened and scared

Oh, I read like an open book
I'm so afraid you'll see like an open book
Have mercy on me

You don't want to know the company I keep
Or every bit of truth behind the scenes
Maybe never will be soon enough for me
There's no point in rushing in to things
Don't look for answers I don't know myself
You wouldn't like much what you heard
Just look at ???, do I look like someone else
What is this mystery that has you so concerned

I read like an open book
I'm so afraid you'll see like an open book
Have mercy on me

Oh, I read like an open book
I'm so afraid you'll see like an open book
Have mercy on me
Have mercy on me
Please, please have mercy on me

I'm so afraid you'll see like an open book

What's the matter with the way we look?
Surely it's not the end
I only meant to make my motions clear
You worry too much if it's understood
Should we be seen as friends?
Seems like a real good beginning right here

'Cause when your heart is weak
I'm gonna pick the lock on it
My fingertips won't fail me
No matter what you do
The love you cannot see yet
Is about to witness a dawning
And you can twist and turn
But you won't get loose

Better forget getting rid of me
I don't see how you can
You put me off and I will hunt you
down...again
I'm mighty patient when I have to be
You have given me that
Still I look forward to the day you let me in

'Cause when your heart is weak
I'm gonna pick the lock on it
My fingertips won't fail me
No matter what you do
The love you cannot see yet
Is about to witness a dawning
And you can twist and turn
But you won't get loose

I'm gonna prove myself worthy
No more just hanging on
Without a prayer of a chance
I'm gonna come without warning
when your defenses are down and you're in
a desperate need
Oh, I bet you you then, you'll welcome me...
Your ol' companion
Your ol' companion

Remember baby,
'Cause when your heart is weak
I'm gonna pick the the lock on it
And you can twist and turn
But you won't get, you won't get
No you won't get loose
Oh no
