When I walk in your shoes I understand a man confused There must have been but I don't care I feel the way your soul does there
Darling they empathize Looking through your bloodshot eyes And I know you you're so frustrated Above we all become what we once hated Be slight nobody can be that wise
I can't help you if you won't help yourself No I can't help you if you don't help yourself You can only get so much from someone yeah You can get so much from me I can't help you if you won't help yourself
You've got a degree in philosophy So you think you're cleverer than me (cause you so smart) But I'm not just some drama queen
(drama queen) 'Cause it's where you're at not where you've been So what do you expect from me (what do you want)
To hold your head above the sea (keep you high and dry) And there are you even though you're bigger 'Cause don't you know you crush my tiny figure
And anyway we're still so young (yeah I'm so young) And this isn't yet the day
I can't help you if you won't help yourself No I can't help you if you don't help yourself (You won't help yourself) You can only get so much from someone yeah I can't help you if you won't help yourself
You might be twenty-five but in my mind I see you at sixteen years or most of the time And I'm just a child and you're full grown And no I'm nothing like I've ever known yeah You are like nothing that I ever knew
When I get to Warwick Avenue... Meet me by the entrance of the tube. We can talk things over, a little time... Promise me you won't step outta line.
When I get to Warwick Avenue... Please drop the past and be true. Don't think we're okay, just because I'm here... You hurt me bad, but I won't shed a tear.
I'm leaving you for the last time baby... You think you're loving but you don't love me. I've been confused outta’ my mind lately... You think you're loving but I want to be free. Baby you've hurt me.
When I get to Warwick Avenue... We'll spend an hour, but no more than two. Our only chance to speak, once more... I showed you the answers, now here's the door.
When I get to Warwick Avenue... I'll tell you baby, that we're through.
I'm leaving you for the last time baby... You think you're loving but you don't love me. I've been confused outta’ my mind lately... You think you're loving but you don't love me. I want to be free, baby you've hurt me.
All the days spent together, I wished for better, But I didn't want the train to come. Now it's departed, I'm broken hearted, seems like we never started. All the days spent together, when I wished for better, And I didn't want the train to come
You think you're loving but you don't love me. I want to be free, baby you've hurt me. You don't love me, I want to be free, Baby you've hurt me.
It was just my mistake Thinking you cared It was just my mistake Thinking you'd be there That you'd be by my side And that you wouldn't lie My mistake
It was just my false hope Thinking we'd last, yeah It was just my false hope Forgot all your past All those girls you denied Smashed up hearts hung out to dry
I know it's wrong Hanging on too long I know it's wrong Hanging on too long But I need to move on Hanging on too long
I was a fool for you Right from the start, yeah I was a fool for you Hoping for a spark For some kind of sign That you would be mine
I know it's wrong, I do Hanging on too long And I know it's wrong Hanging on too long
My heart was clutching To one fair right My head was hoping It could put up a fight
I know it's wrong Hanging on too long And I know it's wrong Hanging on too long And I need to move on I'm hanging on too long
I know it's wrong Hanging on too long And I know it's wrong Hanging on too long
It seems you wanna give me Oh, a life time of security Down on your dying knees I watch you, babe, I watch you plead
But your words come much too late My love for you has turned to hate 'Cause you've taken too much time To show me that you're mine
When I drop you boy You'll need another toy One that won't stand up for herself When I knock you down You'll need another town Where somebody's gonna talk to you You just let me wait Now it's too late For your delayed, delayed devotion
You try to convince me Oh, about the possibilities But I know that all your poetry Just comes from insecurity
'Cause your actions speak nothing no more When it's what I've been waiting for 'Cause you've taken too much time To show me that you're mine
When I drop you boy You'll need another toy One that won't stand up for herself When I knock you down You'll need another town Where somebody's gonna talk to you 'Cause you just let me wait Now it's too late For your delayed devotion
You played me for a fool for too long Blinded by your lies I never saw your all I'm no longer under your spell Hear it in a song You can go to Hell
When I drop you boy You'll need another toy One that won't stand up for herself When I knock you down You'll need another town Where somebody's gonna talk to you You just let me wait And now its too late For your delayed, delayed emotion
The blank pages of my diary, That I haven't touched since you left me, The closed blinds in my home See no light of day. Dust gathers on my stereo Cos I can't bare to hear the radio The piano sits in a shaded space With a picture of your face.
I'm scared to face another day Cos the fear in me just won't go away. In an instant, you were gone and I'm scared.
Coffee stains on your favorite book Remind me of you so I can't even look. The magazines you left on the floor,
You won't need them anymore.
A towel left hangin on the wall, No sign of wet foosteps in the hall There's no smell of your sweet cologne. I'm lying here alone.
I'm scared to face another day Cos the fear in me just won't go away. In an instant, you were gone and now I'm scared.
I'm scared to face another day Cos the fear in me just won't go away. In an instant, you were gone, now I'm scared. In an instant you were gone and I'm scared.
