I used to travel in the shadows
And I never found the nerve to try and walk up to you But now I am a man and I know that there's no time to waste There's too much to lose Girl you say anything at all, and you know that you can call And I'll be right there for you First love, heartbreak, tough luck, big mistake What else can you do [Chorus] I'll say anything you want to hear I'll see everything through I'll do anything I have to do Just to win the love of a girl like you, a girl like you People talk and people stare, tell them I don't really care This is the place I should be And if they think it's really strange for a girl like you To be in love with someone like me I want to tell them all to go to hell That we're doing very well without them you see That's just the way it is and they will see I am yours and you are mine the way it should be [Chorus] Now if I seem a little wild, there's no holding back I'm trying to get a message to you I won't take anything from anyone I won't walk and I won't run, I believe in you London, Washington, anywhere you are I'll run Together we'll be Inside, outside, got my pride I won't let him take you from me [Chorus] |

> You know I really wanna see you when you know I might not
(And you make me want you more when you hurt me a lot) I say I really love you and you say that you don't (And it really turns me on when you say that you won't) CHORUS The blues before and after I get the blues before and after I'm with you The blues before and after I get the blues before and after loving you Sometimes I need to hear you voice Sometimes I don't want to know (I get so tired of tryin' to win you I just don't want to know) You're takin' just what you need And then you're well on your way (I hear the same old story almost every day) CHORUS It's a shame that you won't see me when I need you tonight Cause I know that if you did then everything would be right And I've tried my very best to give the things that you need But the blues they seem to follow me I never succeed I wanna take you in my arms and you just don't wanna know (When I finally get to touch you, feels like forty below) Just as always you have gotten your way Just a normal complication in a typical day CHORUS ~wc~ |

> Blue period, black comedy
Such a joke I've played on me I let you go And now I know a world of uncertainty Now I think about the days When I let you down in so many ways That's the time I want to cry And the time I wonder why and pray My apathy is tragedy I'm content to stay inside This emptiness is killing me I can run but I can't hide And you loved me all along When I always did you wrong That's the time I can't forget And it fills me with regret always when you think that you have won Then your heartache's just begun Blue period, black comedy Love's a clown, now laugh my way I think of you Much more than I'd ever be willing to say Now I don't want to pretend I was glad to see us ending this way That's the time I want to cry And the time I wonder why and pray Blue period, I'm looking for someone who Is just like you, to help end this blue period |

In a room without a view
Lots of time, nothing to do I sit, watch the days go by I don't need to wonder why In a room without a view Lots of time, nothing to do In a room without a view, without you This room is the perfect size And it never tells me lies Many pleasant memories All repeating worthlessly In a room without a view Lots of time, nothing to do In a room without a view, without you here I find security, no problems here for me This is where I want to be And whether I like it or not, a room without a view is what I've got Here I find security, so please don't bother me This is where I ought to be And whether I like it or not A room without a view is what I've got In a room without a view Lots of time, nothing to do I sit, watch the years go by I don't need to wonder why In a room without a view Lots of time, nothing to do In a room without a view, without you |

I never think about the future
I just live for today And if you want a ready answer I've got nothing to say So please don't bother talking to me I'll just disappoint you Because I'm quite content to sit right here With nothing to do Well I'm not the same guy that you used to know I used to be the guy that had someplace to go But that was yesterday girl, yesterday girl Yesterday girl, yesterday girl And you're my yesterday girl, yesterday girl Yesterday girl, yesterday girl I never wanna find an answer 'cause I don't like the truth And if I find just what I'm looking for I've something to lose So please don't go and ask me questions I just won't feel the same (I'll do what you say, doesn't matter anyway) And when I think about religion Well, there's no one to blame (I'll agree with you, doesn't matter what I do) Well I'm not the singer that you used to know I used to be the ??? fella with someplace to go But that was yesterday girl, yesterday girl Yesterday girl, yesterday girl And you're my yesterday girl, yesterday girl Yesterday girl, yesterday girl {Tell me something new, then I might agree with you I live for today, not yesterday) I never think about the future I just live for today And if you want an easy answer I've got nothing to say Now I'm not the singer that you used to know I used to be the guy that had someplace to go But that was yesterday girl, yesterday girl Yesterday girl, yesterday girl And you're my yesterday girl, yesterday girl Yesterday girl, yesterday girl |

Sentimental gestures never meant that much to me
But if I had her here today I'd shed a tear for all the world to see [Chorus] Cut flowers sent to a girl with sentimental ways Cut flowers meant more to her on ordinary days A gentle girl who needed all the love I had to give But I was blind to her and would not give What she needed most to live [Chorus] Cut flowers pressed between the pages of a book she gave I go to her and say, "I'm sorry," Then I put cut flowers on her grave [Chorus] |

I take my time and I like to move slow
Why should I worry when there's nowhere to go? I like things simple and my friends are alright I tell no stories and I sleep good at night Things were different just before I met you Now I worry wonderin' what to do I was happy never playin' your game Now you tell me that your name is William Wilson I run up the staircase and there's nobody there I play my records and then I haven't a care My ears to the speaker and the heartache's forgot Sometimes I'd forget you, other times I could not I'd lie crying on the top of my bed I was wonderin' 'bout the life you led I would cry for you and call out your name Now you say no one's to blame but William Wilson William Wilson, William Wilson William Wilson, let him run wild I want to talk to him I want to talk to him Where is he now? Where is he now? I wanna be like him I want to see him grin Where is he now? Where is he now? I'd lie crying on the top of my bed I was wonderin' 'bout the life you led Now I understand we're both just the same Now I tell you that my name is William Wilson William Wilson, let him run wild Let him run wild |

And now it's time to go to bed
My darling rest your weary head But I have work I should begin So I will tuck you in And I will kiss your tears away I never thought I'd run to you I thought I'd better things to do But now I can't wait for the day When by your side I'll lay And I will kiss your tears away I will give you everything I will make your every dream come true I will be the one you need You know I'm the one to see you through I will give you everything I will make your every dream come true I will be the one you need You know I'm the one to see you through And now it's time to go to bed My darling rest your weary head But I have work I should begin So I will tuck you in And I will kiss your tears away |
