Sitting home alone, in her room by the phone
Watching time move shadows down wall
She’s waiting for a message, with the words to confess
He’ll say I’m not where you think that I was

2 months later long after he betrayed her
He finally realized what he’s done
That’s way too long for a girl to hold on
So she’s put up her wall cuz she’s done

Now, he’s saying what
He should have said a long time ago
It’s not much but
Baby, I…

I wanna be your gentleman
I wanna be your hopeless romantic
I wanna be your everything
I wanna be your story book ending

Maybe I’m not divine, I’m not your knight in shining armor
Maybe I’m just a regular guy
But isn’t that the problem?  I’m so damn involved in myself
That you no longer care why
                                                          
Don’t give up on love
Don’t give up on passion and
Don’t give up on trust
It just, takes, time
Baby, I…

I wanna be your gentleman
I wanna be your hopeless romantic
I wanna be your everything
I wanna be your story book ending

We need a return,
A revival
We need a return,
A revival of chivalry

Nothing Lasts forever
I guess it’s time to just let go
I keep wishing that
You’d let me in one last time
Cuz, I…

I wanna be your gentleman
I wanna be your hopeless romantic
I wanna be your everything
I wanna be your story book ending

Yea she’s put up her wall cuz she’s done
