Darling I don’t know why you’re feeling sorry
For yourself, you crossed the line
Your bloody heartaches blinding to everybody
Pick yourself up off the ground
Every time I waited for you
You got so caught up with yourself that I
Lost touch with all my self-respect
I’ll never let you take me back
Hold your distance, we have a history
Of repeating our past mistakes
But if you fall down I will
Pick you up again
Every time I waited for you
You got so caught up with yourself that I
Lost touch with all my self-respect
I’ll never let you take me back
So just say what you mean
We’re lovers under cover as friends
We’re lovers under cover of a complicated other
We’re lovers on the phone again
We’re lovers under cover of the thought that this is over
And I never want to see you again
Every time I waited for you
You got so caught up with yourself that I
Lost touch with all my self-respect
I’ll never let you take me back
Every time I waited for you
You found another one to comfort you
And in the din of drugs in vacant cars
You leave, you leave me standing here
