Saint

You don't pa*s your time in limbo Or hang out with the crowd Sitting on the stoop like a little girl Who took the wrong road into town But you got that shortcut way about you And no one's gonna stare you down You cook much better on a lower flame You burn much better when the sun goes down And heaven can wait But you ought to be a saint I've got your very best intentions Helping me along And if I ever fail to mention You were an overnight sensation Well, take it from me My baby's a saint, my baby's a saint I believe you were a new arrival On the fast train pa*sing through And you traded in your luck for survival To sweeten up the witch's brew You had a better way of working magic A little mystery in your eyes Instead of rolling over you remained the same You took the whole world by surprise And heaven can wait But you ought to be a saint I've got your very best intentions Helping me along And if I ever fail to mention You were an overnight sensation Well, take it from me My baby's a saint, my baby's a saint My baby's a saint And heaven can wait But you ought to be a saint I've got your very best intentions Helping me along And if I ever fail to mention You were an overnight sensation Well, take it from me My baby's a saint, my baby's a saint My baby's a saint
