|
I don't come around |
|
Never call or let her know |
|
I got a life of my own |
|
You know I hate to be around her |
|
When she's like that |
|
I wrote a song once about her |
|
Called "The Brides Have Hit Glass" |
|
You know it just won't last |
|
To be on top of your own world |
|
With no guardrails to cling to |
|
You fall so very fast |
|
It's very odd to find her up again |
|
Staking out expansion |
|
Seeking new exposure |
|
And when she holds out an empty glass |
|
And she comes for a handout |
|
I ask for the same thing-it's sad |
|
And I hold on so sure |
|
I can take all she can |
|
Just to be around her |
|
Just to feel bad |
|
One day I will know |
|
That's it's a waste of time |
|
And there's a better road ahead of me |
|
I just don't know how to make it there |
|
So I'll just hang around and take my chance |
|
Once again |
|
I'll roll the dice |
|
And try to hang on to my shrinking paradise |
|
And I'll hold out an empty glass |
|
And I'll come for a handout |
|
And I'll ask for the same thing-it's sad |
|
And I'll hold on so confident |
|
That's it all |
|
I can give |
|
To try to find my way back |
|
Just to hit glass |
