Indigo Girls True Romantic song lyrics

Baby I got the best intentions

But I just can’t do it

Baby I got the truest aim

But I just can’t win

Baby I got a good vibration

But I just can’t play it

Baby I spent my only fortune

On the wages of sin.

So you, you got to be, extra forgivin

And you, you got to be extra strong

You got to be true romantic

I want you to look the other way

When every thing goes wrong

Baby if you took all the good stuff

And put it all together

And you took all the bad stuff

And you threw it all away

Would I still be the girl that suits your fancy

Would I still be the boy

Who rocks your world

If you get lonely

In trouble and the chaos

If you get bored, since you walked away

Remember what I told you

When the night was darkened

You can leave me all you need to

Baby I’m here to stay

Baby I’m going to be extra forgiving

And I’m going to be super strong

Because baby I’m a true romantic

I’m going to look the other way

When everything goes wrong
