Don't tell me about the nature of desire
|
I sit and watch you
|
twisted, tangled in the wire
|
I'm on the road now
|
and you're glad to see me go
|
I guess you'll sit outside
|
and watch your flowers grow.
|
|
Oh, I never knew the rounds
|
I'd take for loving you.
|
I hope you're happy with your life
|
I guess you'll sleep along tonight.
|
|
I used to wonder
|
how you kept me down so long
|
I'm glad to say
|
that now I'm back where I belong.
|
I'm on the road now
|
and I'm wishing I was fast asleep
|
I thinking of the promises
|
you never seem to keep.
|
|
Oh, I never knew the rounds
|
I'd take for loving you.
|
I hope you're happy with your life
|
I guess you'll sleep along tonight.
|
|
Don't try and change my mind.
|
There's nothing left to say.
|
Yea you've been buying time
|
but now you're gonna pay.
|
So don't tell me
|
about the nature of desire
|
I sit and watch you
|
twisted, tangled in the wire.
|
I'm on the road now
|
and I'm glad to see me go.
|
I guess I'll sit outside
|
and watch the flowers grow.
|
|
Oh, I never knew the rounds
|
I'd take for loving you.
|
I hope you're happy with your life
|
I guess you'll sleep along tonight.
