Lyrics

I met him in my favorite place
Well it used to be
Until I realized how crappy
It could make me feel
It was before the doorman rejected me
He couldn't handle my virginity
But the DJ could
Just before music turned life into
Something good
And he asked for my suggestions
Needed my directions
And even though Dr. Martens don't go well
With a Lions Club tie
He asked if I was hungry
My wallet couldn't speak for me
So I gave him my company
But something made me try to read his eyes
I didn't give myself away
No matter how close it may seem
Apart from my precious faith
I didn't give myself away
He didn't take anything from me
Apart from my precious faith
In everyone's honesty
He had enough money to spend
Back home he had a girl
He had me watching his influence
He lied and I listened word for word
But calling all the bluffs I heard
I thought would cost me more
Than listening to the decadent ways
Of his world
By then I started noticing
The masculine curse
Calculating with my young thirst
He said he had to see me naked first
Then for that part in his movie
He could end his search
He had me in mind
I failed to tell him he didn't strike me
As being the director kind
I didn't give myself away
No matter how close it may seem
Apart from my precious faith
I didn't give myself away
He didn't take anything from me
Apart from my precious faith
In everyone's honesty
I never wanted to be an actress
I can't pretend to cry
I couldn't even ask him why
He didn't look me in the eye
Still naivety gave it a try
Behind his hotel room door
I could see his real intention
Rise from across the floor
I wish I'd been younger
Then it could've passed as a mistake
And I wish I'd been older
Old enough to give him a shake
Did I mention he was Swedish?
And really dealt in real estate?
Well he dealt enough to see me naked
I should've exposed that white-feathered faker
But I didn't give myself away
No matter how close it may seem
Apart from my precious faith
No I didn't give myself away
He didn't take anything from me
Apart from my precious faith
In everyone's honesty
Silly me
