[Verse 1] And all the sky is turning blue If I could only get past you Then I would know what we've got here Maybe see where we live If I could only rearrange with you Soldier the plans and try to change Then I might feel like your hero Coming home from war Then I might understand How I ended up a man [Chorus 1] Darling, please forgive me I was sitting on a fence I was slowly going out of my head I did not hear a word that you said I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed [Verse 2] If I could take your blows, If I could get past go If I could find a way of fixing all the things that I broke Then I would, if I could And I might understand how I ended up a man Yeah, I might understand how I ended up a man [Bridge] But the truth is hard to find When it's playing tricks with your mind [Chorus 2] Darling, please forgive me I was hanging with my friends I was slowly getting outta my head I did not hear a word that you said I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed I was enjoying myself sleeping in your flowerbed
