Too Much For One (Not Enough for Two)
[Verse 1]
That time I caught you texting then you went for that long drive
I headed out immediately to hit my latest dive
I just needed company, you to be alone
Your face, it told me everything that wasn't on your phone

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Later, you admitted it, came clean about the dirty
You didn't mean to break my heart, cause that amount of hurt
Well, what amount you meant to cause eludes me to this day
But now you're back and all of that's okay

[Chorus]
See, you're too much for one but not enough for two
You're that cobbler who just doesn't know the sizе of his own shoe
If ever shе came crawling back, you'd probably say, 'I do'
You're just too much for one, not enough for two

[Verse 2]
Now I'm back here loving you, I'll try to do my best
Or hold you here in my arms so closely to my chest
I promise you that I will stay and I won't wriggle free
And choose to spend a lifetime on someone else's knee

[Pre-Chorus 2]
The way you made your exit like character off soap
I wasn't sure how you'd react, but I went and bought you rope
There's always 'dead end street' sign on every Lover's Lane
So I knew my joy would last until your interest, it would wane
[Chorus 2]
You're too much for one but not enough for two
You're that cobbler who just doesn't know the size of his own shoe
If ever she came crawling back, you'd probably say, 'I do'
You're just too much for one, not enough for two

[Bridge]
Going back and forth between, we're yo-yos on that string
You say that you feel confused; well, I don't feel a thing
I've reached permanently numb from permanently blue
You're too much for one, not enough for two, yeah

[Chorus 2]
You're too much for one but not enough for two
You're that cobbler who just doesn't know the size of his own shoe
If ever she came crawling back, you'd probably say, 'I do'
You're just too much for one, not enough for two
