Stay home for a minute
Can you put down the telephone
You’re either out or you’re in it
I don’t see the point if I’m alone

Somebody just walks in the door
And you’re so much more
Engaged with what they have to say
I don’t want to play anymore
When you walk out the door
Hope that this time means you’re going to stay

I don’t see myself
Sittin on the shelf
While you’re trippin the light
So out of sight
You’ve been doing me wrong
And you have all along
What did I do
To make you blue

I thought you were the one
But now it looks like we’re done
I was so blind
Didn’t know your kind
And now I’m here all alone
While you’re out in the zone
What can I do
I’m through with you

Next time I’ll do better
I won’t let them make a fool of me
Stay close to the letter
Pay attention to the signs I see

I won’t have to wonder at night
When I don’t feel right
And I haven’t got a clue on you
There won’t be the usual fight
And I’m hoping I might
Find someone who plays it true

I’ll be on my own
Keep it close to the bone
Till I finally see
Who’s right for me
Then I’ll let them inside
We’ll have nothing to hide
Just us two
Me and you

I’ll take care of the one
And we’ll try to find fun
In the everyday
In the way we play
And we’ll finally believe
That we’ll both never leave
This time
We’ll be fine
So fine
