|
I blew the dust out of the corners |
|
Threw some dead wood on the fire |
|
Tuned the radio to silence |
|
Watched the evening sun expire |
|
Should have called you up this morning |
|
But I'm such a fool at times |
|
I still search my shaving mirror |
|
Looking for your face with mine |
|
And I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Can't let another day go by |
|
Why is it always this way? |
|
Time never seems to really fly |
|
And time is never really on my side |
|
And I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Things have to change and they might |
|
But I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Chalk up one more crazy notion |
|
Imagination running wild |
|
But if I needed confirmation |
|
I would have gone that extra mile |
|
You're the last chance on the highway |
|
I'm that open stretch of road |
|
You're the diner in my rear-view |
|
A cup of coffee getting cold |
|
And I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Can't let another day go by |
|
Why is it always this way? |
|
Time never seems to really fly |
|
And time is never really on my side |
|
And I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Things have to change and they might |
|
But I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Bruised in this cold war of words |
|
We've come undone two loose ends alone |
|
Possessed by that curse you've endured |
|
The spell that I cast couldn't make you come home |
|
And I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Can't let another day go by |
|
Why is it always this way? |
|
Time never seems to really fly |
|
And time is never really on my side |
|
And I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Things have to change and they might |
|
But I can't stay alone tonight |
|
Things have to change and they might |
|
But I can't stay alone tonight |
