lyrics

Words you told me, things I’ve said
I should’ve been wrong, you proved me right instead (oh)
You didn’t have to be untrue
When you know I’d put my trust in you
You kept me hanging on a broken thread
You should’ve said that

You were fooling around
without words, without sound
you keep calling me baby,
but I’ve got my doubts
about you loving me
about setting me free
I’m not playing your game
Sorry just ain’t good enough.

Ain’t good enough
Ain’t good enough
Ain’t good enough
Sorry just ain’t good enough.

Of busy lines and voicemail blues
Could my unread messages get through to you (Hello?)
You got me speaking to a machine
With automatic pop-electro beats
Can’t keep up with this unbroken chain
With this helpless aim.

You keep fooling around
without words, without sound
you keep calling me baby,
but I’ve got my doubts
about you loving me
about setting me free
I’m not playing your game
Sorry just ain’t good enough.

I’ve lost the line once again
Kept redialling when
Finally I got the line
all you do is apologize?
Operator’s amiss
Don’t wanna be a part of this
You got me waiting on hold
Till I just lose control.

Ain’t good enough
Ain’t good enough
Ain’t good enough
Sorry just ain’t good enough.
