Nerina Pallot – Men Are Not From Mars lyrics

Men are not from Mars, that being said
She's always trying to figure out what's in your head
Even when it's nothing, she's sure it isn't nothing
You'll not persuade her

In your defense, she's always prone to tears
For no apparent reason, she's sincere
And when she says she wants to talk, she just means she wants to talk
So let her

Sometimes
The girl is fronting
So scared to wear her heart on her sleeve
In case it comes to nothing

So this is not that kind of song
That says true love won't ever go wrong
I know it's hard, I know you're stuck, but
Don't give up

When you always feel like you've said something wrong
You've blown your chance to get along
I know it's hard, and you're out of luck, but
Don't give up

And if she says she wants the lights down low
It's only cause she's shy, so let her know
That you think she's beautiful
Beautiful, make your heart hurt

Assure her you can keep your word
And she can trust everything she's heard
What you give, you get back a thousand in return, oh
You know you can depend on her

But sometimes
The girl is fronting
So scared to wear her heart on her sleeve
In case it comes to nothing

So this is not that kind of song
That says true love won't ever go wrong
I know it's hard, I know you're stuck, but
Don't give up

When you always feel like you've said something wrong
You've blown your chance to get along
I know it's hard, you're out of luck, but
Don't give up

She'll come around
Just give it time
She'll come around
Yeah, take it from somebody who knows

So this is not that kind of song
That says true love won't ever go wrong
I know it's hard, I know you're stuck, but
Don't give up

When you always feel like you've said something wrong
And you've blown your chance to get along
I know it's hard, you're out of luck, but
Don't give up

Hey,
Don't give up
I know it's hard, you're out of luck, but
Don't give up

Men are not from Mars, that being said
You ain't ever gonna figure out what's in her head
You ain't ever gonna do it soon
Best sleep on it
