Love makes the world go round What goes up must sure come down Waiting for our downfall now As you see it makes no sense to me Makes no sense to me Said I'd love you come what may Next day everything had changed Still don't get it to this day So what can I do if it makes no sense to you? Makes no sense to you Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Though I try explain it Patience fading Won't you just give me Just give me tea and sympathy Just give me tea and sympathy Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Though I try explain it Patience fading Won't you just give me Just give me tea and sympathy Just give me tea and sympathy Sorry is the hardest word And though I plea it goes unheard You say it don't stop the hurt As you see this makes no sense to me Makes no sense to me Although we made plans and you shared my views I was still young and quite confused Not using young as an excuse But what can I do if it makes no sense to you? Makes no sense to you Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Though I try explain it Patience fading Won't you just give me Just give me tea and sympathy Just give me tea and sympathy Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Makes no sense to me Won't make no sense to you Though I try explain it Patience fading Won't you just give me Just give me tea and sympathy Just give me tea and sympathy My heart is on the line My heart is on the line Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Just give me tea and sympathy Just give me tea and sympathy My heart is on the line My heart is on the line Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Just give me tea and sympathy Just give me tea and sympathy I need, I need All I need, I need Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me I want sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me Sympathy when words fail me
