Well, I'm afraid that it's true |
|
I'm leaving you. |
|
But rest assuredtomorrow |
|
I'll be home. |
|
Cuz you know |
|
I never could, |
|
I never was no good, |
|
Lord knows, at being on my own. |
|
Never been the typeto wanna settle down,or never had the nerve to ramble on. |
|
So I'm leaving here tonightbut |
|
I'll be back before dawn,so leave the light onand keep my supper warm. |
|
Never been a fighter or a lover. |
|
Never thought that either made much sense. |
|
And I can't decide on this way or the otherso |
|
I live my life just sitting on this fence. |
|
And today |
|
I feel restlessbut tomorrow |
|
I won't fret this. |
|
And there's no tellingwhat this boy might do. |
|
But baby, guarantee"the moment that I'm freethat that's when I'll come crawlin' back to you." |
|
Never been a fighter or a lover. |
|
Never thought that either made much sense. |
|
And I can't decide on this way or the otherso |
|
I live my life just sitting on this fence. |
|
And I don't know how you stand it. |
|
Don't know why you stay. |
|
But I know you never planned itto turn out this way. |
|
And I would understand itif you couldn't take anymoreof me always keeping one foot out the door. |
|
And I want to get married. |
|
I want to raise a family. |
|
Do the things that normal people do. |
|
But what self-respecting womanwould ever have me and not stab mewhen |
|
I wanna have my cake and eat it, too? |
|
Never been a fighter or a lover. |
|
Never thought that either made much sense. |
|
And I can't decide on this way or the otherso |
|
I live my life just sitting on this fence. |
|
Yeah, I live my life just sitting on this fence. |
|
And I'll probably die just sitting on this fence. |
