Saint

A little mystery in your eyes
But you ought to be a saint
Who took the wrong road into town
Well, take it from me
Helping me along
You took the whole world by surprise

My baby's a saint
I've got your very best intentions
And if I ever fail to mention
You were an overnight sensation
Well, take it from me
I've got your very best intentions
And if I ever fail to mention
I believe you were a new arrival
You cook much better on a lower flame
And if I ever fail to mention
Helping me along

And you traded in your luck for survival
But you got that shortcut way about you
My baby's a saint, my baby's a saint
My baby's a saint, my baby's a saint
Well, take it from me
Instead of rolling over you remained the same
You were an overnight sensation
Sitting on the stoop like a little girl

And heaven can wait

And heaven can wait
But you ought to be a saint
On the fast train passing through
To sweeten up the witch's brew
You were an overnight sensation

Helping me along
But you ought to be a saint

You burn much better when the sun goes down
My baby's a saint, my baby's a saint
And no one's gonna stare you down
You had a better way of working magic

I've got your very best intentions
And heaven can wait
