you were far from me but i could
hear every word you spoke
same words over and over
what do we get for our trouble and pain?
we want someone to long for
we want them here
all we can strive for
we want it now
and when it's here
we don't know what to do next
you would keep an open mind
but even i had to laugh
you sell your story over and over
changing names of places and friends
as you stay put on your side
we don't say you're foolish or proud
lean on us to take you out
or push you wherever feels right
we want someone to long for
we want them here
all we can strive for
we want it now
and when it's here
we don't know what to do next
