Fearless Love

Miss California what did I do wrong
It seems I've loved you
For just a little too long
You've gone and left me
For some preacher's way
Now you act like you never knew me
And you can't hear a word I say


Miss California did I get in your way
Did the neighbors warn you
What would happen some day
Like a love like mine
Was never good anyway
They said think about your reputation now
Before you get carried away


Don't you know what's good for me can be good for you
Don't you know what's good for me can be good for you
Don't you know what is good for you
Can be good for me too
Don't you know what's good for me can be good for you


Miss California was I a little too proud
I'm standing in the street now
And I'm screaming out loud
You try to shove me in your closet
With your skulls and your bones
I can be who I am you see
If I want to do it all alone


Yeah yeah yeah


Don't you know what's good for me can be good for you
Don't you know what is good for you
Can be good for me too
Don't you know what's good for me can be good for you


Your sweet seduction 
led me far from home
Your self-destruction 
gives me sticks and stones
Your propositions 
make me feel so cold
When the hand 
that's trying to hold me down
Is the one I'm trying to hold
I know the hand that's 
trying to hold me down
Is the one I'm trying to hold
I said the hand that's trying
to force me back
Is the one that won't let me go


Miss California
Yeah yeah yeah
Miss California
Yeah yeah yeah
Miss California
Yeah yeah yeah
Miss California
Yeah yeah yeah


Ah huh


Yeah
You know what is good for me
