|
I know you broke up with him
|
And your heart's still on the shelf
|
It's been over two years for me
|
And I'm still not quite myself
|
You can't be with someone new
|
And you can't go back to him
|
You're beginning to realize
|
That it's sink or swim
|
|
I see you around sometimes
|
And my heart just melts
|
You're lookin' like if you had your wish
|
You'd be somewhere else
|
And it just breaks my heart
|
To see you here this way
|
Someday I'll get the nerve
|
To walk up to you and say
|
|
This is the last worthless evening
|
That you'll have to spend
|
Just gimme a chance
|
To show you how to love again
|
This is the last worthless evening
|
That you'll have to spend
|
'Cause I'll be there
|
When your broken heart is on the mend
|
|
Every night it's the same old crowd
|
in smokey rooms
|
You catch a faint glimpse of love sometimes
|
But it never blooms
|
I've been around this block a time or two
|
And I've made some big mistakes
|
But girl I promise you, I promise you
|
|
This is the last worthless evening
|
That you'll have to spend
|
Just gimme a chance
|
To show you how to love again
|
This is the last worthless evening
|
that you'll have to spend
|
'Cause it won't be long
|
'Till your little heart is on the mend
|
|
People inside their houses
|
with the shades pulled down
|
|
God knows, we could use some romance
|
in this sleepy bedroom town
|
I know you're still afraid to rush into anything
|
But there're just so many summers
|
And just so many springs
|
|
And this is the last worthless evening
|
That you'll have to spend, baby
|
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance
|
To show you love again
|
This is the last worthless evening
|
That you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long
|
'Til your little heart is on the mend
|
|
That you'll have to spend
|
Just gimme a chance to show you how
|
to love again
|
This is the last worthless evening
|
That you'll have to spend 'cause it won't be long
|
'Til your little heart is on the mend
|
|
