I´ll open up if you make an incision
I´ll do right by you
All I ask is for your care and precision
And maybe I could pull through

You could´ve saved me if you´d only known better
But you so carelessly
Took me apart and put me back together
Open heart surgery

I was fine at first
Now I assume the worst
When I could overhear
The repercussions of a sad discussion
Another girl in tears

I could´ve saved here if I only knew better
That you so carelessly
Took her apart and put her back together
Open heart surgery

If girls like you and girls like me
Are really a dime a dozen

Why are we in such a high demand
My mother says it´s just a shame you don´t come around too often
Even she´s begun to understand

Just let me know
What you were thinking
I find a way to get along somehow
Just let me go
Don´t leave me hanging
Oh, please don´t fail me now

Just take it slow
Don´t let me suffer
I´m on the verge of an emergency
The final blow
Will make me tougher
Until then you will always be

A danger to me

We should´ve listened to our intuition
But we knew all to well
In addition to our suspicions
Only time could tell

With friends like you I get confused
Who needs enemies
We´ve been here too many times before
Open heart surgery

If girls like you and girls like me
Are really a dime a dozens
Why are we in such a high demand
My mother says it´s just a shame you don´t come around too often
Even she´s begun to understand

Just let me know
What you were thinking
I find a way to get along somehow
Just let me go
Don´t leave me hanging
Oh, please don´t fail me now

Just take it slow
Don´t let me suffer
I´m on the verge of an emergency
The final blow
Will make me tougher
Until then you will always be
A danger to me
A danger to me
