(Trnqvist)

This is what happens when you wait too long
and you finally realize that your friends were right
when they told you you get what you resist
And this is what happens when you decide to put
your foot down,
and you aim for the spot to put your foot down,
and you hesitate, and you miss

We can have a picnic, you can bring your ma
but she'll have to look away now and then
When you see I have truly given up
we'll just send her back home
and I'll tell you again

That I do give a damn and I'll call you my man
I'll call you anything that you like
Just give or take one or two
When I sing this to you
You can call me anytime you like

When the north wind blows
and my feet grow cold
you don't have to be afraid that I'll change my mind
'cause I've worn out all of my holding back
and I give you my word and I give you my time

'cause I do give a damn and I'll call you my man
I'll call you anything that you like
Just give or take one or two
When I sing this to you
You can call me anytime you like

This is what happens when you realize you are
making a fool out of yourself
trying to prove the truth wrong
And this is what happens when you accept
your failure with a smile
and get up on your feet and get along

We can take a ride on the countryside
and tell everyone, let everything show
Not just overwhelmed, sooner say overtuned
but now I'm getting up and I want you to know

That I do give a damn and I'll call you my man
I'll call you anything that you like
Just give or take one or two
When I sing this to you
You can call me anytime you li
