Take a Number

Eyes of emerald beaming Hints of blue Lost inside their gleam My walls come down for you Heart's on display I can't play it coy I feel you pull away You say listen boy I'm the talk of the town And I'm gettin' around Won't give it all to you And I know that you're desperate But don't hold your breath I thought you always knew I say I'm sorry my heart is what tears us apart But you don't understand I'm not begging for you So back up, take a cue If you wanna be my man Oo-oh Take a number, get in line The love I've got is hard to find I'm sorry boy you're outta luck You think you're cool but listen up Take a number, wait your turn And while you wait I hope you learn That I'm the one you need to win So take a number and try again Saw you from down the hall Caught in your spell It seemed like you would fall As far as I could tell Pushed through the crowd Our shoulders brushed Maybe a spark I'd found Not just your average crush But as days turned to weeks I was crazed, couldn't speak Just waited by the phone What I couldn't see then Was that even a friend Would give a dog a bone And now it's clear as a crystal I'm blowin' the whistle There's no more time for games Cuz if you're just a player Then boy see ya later Cuz real love is my aim Oo-oh Take a number, get in line The love I've got is hard to find I'm sorry boy you're outta luck You think you're cool but listen up Take a number, wait your turn And while you wait I hope you learn That I'm the one you need to win So take a number and try again I won't deny love I won't deny pain Don't care if it's tough, I won't back away I won't conceal I want what is real No need to justify what I feel inside I won't deny love (won't deny love) I won't deny pain (won't deny pain) Don't care if it's tough, I won't back away I won't conceal I want what is real No need to justify what I feel inside Take a number, get in line The love I've got is hard to find I'm sorry boy you're outta luck You think you're cool but listen up Take a number, wait your turn And while you wait I hope you learn That I'm the one you need to win So take a number and try again Take a number, get in line The love I've got is hard to find I'm sorry boy you're outta luck You think you're cool but listen up Take a number, wait your turn And while you wait I hope you learn That I'm the one you need to win So take a number and try again
