Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad Lyrics By Meat Loaf

    baby we can talk all night
    but that ain’t getting us nowhere
    i told you everything i possibly can
    there’s nothing left inside of here
    and maybe you can cry all night
    but that’ll never change the way that i feel
    the snow is really piling up outside
    i wish you wouldn’t make me leave here

    i poured it on and i poured it out
    i tried to show you just how much i care
    i’m tired of words and i’m too hoarse to shout
    but you’ve been cold to me so long
    i’m cryin’ icicles instead of tears
    and all i can do is keep on tellin’ you

    i want you i need you
    but there ain’t no way i’m ever gonna love you
    now don’t be sad don’t be sad cause
    cause two out of three ain’t bad
    now don’t be sad cause
    cause two out of three ain’t bad

    you’ll never find your gold on a sandy beach
    you’ll never drill for oil on a city street
    i know you’re lookin’ for a ruby in a mountain of rocks
    but there ain’t no coupe de ville hidin’
    at the bottom of a cracker jack box

    i can’t lie i can’t tell you that i’m somethin’ i’m not
    no matter how i try i’ll never be able
    to give you somethin’ somethin’ that i just haven’t got

    well there’s only one girl that i will ever love
    and that was so many years ago
    and though i know i’ll never get her out of my heart
    she never loved me back ooh i know
    well i remember how she left me on a stormy night
    oh she kissed me and got out of our bed
    and though i pleaded and i begged her not to walk out that door
    she packed her bags and turned right away
    and she kept on tellin’ me
    she kept on tellin’ me
    she kept on tellin’ me

    i want you oh i need you
    but there ain’t no way i’m ever gonna love you
    now don’t be sad cause two out of three ain’t bad

    i want you i need you
    but there ain’t no way i’m ever gonna love you
    now don’t be sad
    cause two out of three ain’t bad
    now don’t be sad cause two out of three ain’t bad

    baby we can talk all night
    but that ain’t getting us nowhere
