When You Get To Know Me Better

(album: The Gunman And Other Stories - 2001)

I can tell you'd like to love me
But you haven't known me long
And you don't yet know the ways I'll find
To hurt and do you wrong
I'm a man with one small weakness
Any woman in a dress
When you get to know me better
You'll learn to love me less

Tonight if I'm your angel
And I've flown before you wake
Well it's just that I would hate to let you see my wings are fake
Tonight if I'm your angel
One that God forgot to bless
When you get to know me better
You'll learn to love me less

If I sing you, 'Love me Tender'
In a way that you believe
Remember that I'll mean it
Till the moment that I leave

What I have to tell you
I know in time you'll guess
When you get to know me better
You'll learn to love me less
When you get to know me better
You'll learn to love me less
