Never found out why you left him,

but this answer begs a question,

Too blind to see tomorrow,

too broke to beg or borrow.

Young and Stupid, left wide open

Hearts are wasted, lives are broken



One more point of contention,

I need some intervention

Approached with vague intensions,

betray my short attention span

The distance, bridge the border

Beg forgiveness, round the corner



Every time I look for you the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you the sun goes down once more

Will the last one out, please shut the door



More time apart will give you,

a few more months to argue

Is this to much to live through,

it always seems to far to drive

The point home, send more letters

Pray tomorrow, ends up better



Every time I look for you the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you the sun goes down once more

Will the last one out, please shut the door



I never did do anything that she asked,

I never let what happened, stay in the past

I never did quite understand what she meant,

In spite of everything, in spite of everything



Every time I look for you the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

but every time I look for you the sun goes down
