I'm sittin' in my room, I'm starin' out my window
And I wonder where you've gone Thinking back on the happy hours just before the dawn Outside the wind is blowin' It seems to call your name again Where have you gone City streets and lonely highways I travel down My car is empty and the radio just seems to bring me down I'm just tryin' to find me A pretty smile that I can get into It's true, I'm lost without you Another lonely park, another Sunday Why is it life turns out that way Just when you think you got a good thing It seems to slip away It's warm outside, no clouds are in the sky But I need myself a place to go and hide I keep to myself I don't want nobody else To see me cryin' all those tears in my eyes Another park, another Sunday Why is it life turns out that way Just when you think you got a good thing It seems to slip away Another park, another Sunday It's dark and empty thanks to you I got to get myself together But it's hard to do |

Hey, don't worry, I've been lied to
I've been here many times before Girl, don't you worry, I know where I stand I don't need this love, I don't need your hand I know I could turn, blink, and you'd be gone Then I must be prepared any time to carry on But minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on You will stay just to watch me, darlin' Wilt away on lies from you Can't stop the habit of livin' on the run I take it all for granted like you're the only one Livin' on my own Somehow that sounds nice You think I'm your fool Well, you may just be right 'Cause minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute I keep holding on Call my name and I'll be gone You'll reach out and I won't be there Just my luck you'll realize You should spend your life with someone You could spend your life with someone Minute by minute by minute by minute I'll be holding on Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute I'll be holding on... |
