Two Out of Three Ain't Bad Lyrics


Baby we can talk all night
But that ain't gettin us nowhere
I told you everything I possibly can
There's nothing left inside of hereAnd maybe you can cry all night
But that'll never change the way I feel
The snow is really piling up outside
I wish you wouldn't make me leave hereI poured it on and I poured it out
I tried to show you just how much I care
I'm tired of words and I'm too hoarse to shout
But you've been cold to me so long
I'm crying icicles instead of tearsAnd all I can do is keep on telling you
I want you, I need you
But-there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't bad
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't badYou'll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You'll never drill for oil on a city street

I know you're looking for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain't no coup de ville hiding at the bottom
Of a cracker jack boxI can't lie, I can't tell you something I'm not
No matter how I try
I'll never be able to give you something
Something that I just haven't gotThere's only one girl that I'll ever love
And that was so many years ago
And though I know I'll never get her out of my heart
She never loved me back
Ooh I know
I remember how she left me on a stormy night
She kissed me and got out of our bed
And though I pleaded and I begged her not to walk out that door
She packed her bags and turned right awayAnd she kept on telling me
She kept on telling me
She just kept telling me
I want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't badI want you, I need you
But there ain't no way I'm ever gonna love you
Now don't be sad
'cause two out of three ain't badBaby we can talk all night
But that ain't getting us nowhere
