...I asked a friend about you......
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today
She thinks I still care.
*sniff*
And if she's happy thinkin'
I still need her
Then let that foolish notion
Bring her cheer . . .
There . . . happy now?
Sorry 'bout yer luck . . .
But you know,
I went to see him just today
Oh but I didn't see no tears
All dressed up to go away
First time I'd seen him smile in years
He stopped loving her today
They placed a wreath upon his door
And soon they'll carry him away
He stopped loving her today
Crazy
I'm Crazy for feeling so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feeling so blue
I knew
You'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new
Worry
Why do I let myself worry
Wond'rin'
What in the world did I do
Oh! Crazy
For thinking that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for tryin'
I'm Crazy for cryin'
And I'm crazy
For lovin' you
And now, I have to tell you all that....
The bars are all closed
It’s four in the mornin
Must have shut’em all down
By the shape that I’m in
I lay my head on the wheel
And the horn begins honking
The whole neighborhood knows
That I’m home drunk again
Imagine a world where no music was playing
then think of a church where nobody's praying
if you've ever looked up at a sky with no blue
then you've seen a picture of me without you
Have you walked in a garden where nothing was growing
or stood by a river where nothing was flowing
if you've seen a red rose unkissed by the dew
then you've seen a picture of me without you
Can you picture Heaven with no angels singing
or a quiet Sunday morning with no church bells ringing
if you've watched as the heart of a child breaks in two
then you've seen a picture of me without you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
Have you ever loved someone
Just as I love you
Can't you see I'm sorry
For each mistake I've made
Can't you see I've changed, dear
Can't you see I've paid
Be a little forgiving
Take me back in your heart
How can I go on living
Now that we're apart
If you knew what I've been thru
Then you'd know why I ask you
Have you ever been lonely
Have you ever been blue
Last night all alone in a barroom I met a girl with a drink in her hand
She had ruby red lips and coal black hair and eyes that would tempt any man
Then she came and sat down at my table and as she placed her soft hands in mine
I found myself wanting to kiss her for temptation was flowing like wine
And I was almost persuaded to strip myself of my pride
Almost persuaded to push my conscience aside
Then we danced and she whispered I need you
Take me away from here and be my man
Then I looked into her eyes and I saw it the reflection of my wedding band
And I was almost persuaded to let strange lips lead me on
Almost persuaded but your sweet love made me stop and go home
She said it was just a figment of speech
And I said "you mean figure and she said "no, figment"
Because she could never imagine it happening. But it did
When we first met I played the Shy boy
When she spoke to me for the first time my nose began to bleed
She guessed the rest
The next day we went on a bus ride to the ferry
And when nobody came to collect our fares
Well I knew then this was something special
I couldn't stop thinking about her
And every time I switched on the radio
There was somebody else singing a song about the two of us
It was just like being on a fast ride at the fun fair
The sort you want to get off because its scary
And then as soon as you're off you want get straight back on again
But all love is strange
And you have to learn to take the crunchy with the smooth I suppose
She began going out with Mr. Potato Head
It was when I saw her in he car park
With his coat around her shoulders that I realized
I went home and thought about the two of them together
Until the bathwater went cold around me
I thought about her eyes and the curve of her breasts
And about the point where their bodies met
I confronted her about it
I said, "I'm the most illegible bachelor in town"
And she said "Yeah that's why I could never understand any of those silly letters you sent me"
And then one day it happened
She cut her hair and I stopped loving her
I've got your picture,
that you gave to me,
and it's signed with love,
just like it used to be.
The only thing different, the only thing new.
I've got your picture, she's got you.
I've got the records,
that we used to share,
and they still sound the same,
as when you were here.
The only thing different, the only thing new.
I've got the records, she's got you.
I got your memory,
or, has it got me?
I really dont know,
but i know it wont let me be.
I've got your class ring,
that proved you care,
and it still looks the same,
as when you gave it dear.
The only thing different, the only thing new.
I've got these little things, she's got you.
I've got your memory,
or, has it got me?
I really dont know,
but i know, it wont let me be.
I've got your class ring,

and it still looks the same,

There he goes, he's walkin' away
Each step he takes brings heartaches my way
She won his heart, I lost him someway
There he goes, he's walkin' away
If I hadn't cheated and I hadn't lied
I'd be the one, walkin' by his side
I love him still and I guess that it shows
He's walkin' away, there he goes
Oh, if I hadn't cheated and I hadn't lied
I'd be the one walkin' by his side
I love him still and I guess that is shows
He's walkin' away, there he goes
