I fall outside of her
She doesn't notice
I fall outside of her
She doesn't notice at all
And mine is an empty bed
I think she's forgotten
And mine is an empty bed
She's forgotten, I know
Put the brakes on, put the brakes on
'Cause I'm fading fast
Can't find the link between me and her
He who was first's coming in last
I fall outside of her
And the trouble is there's no telling
Just who's right or who's wrong
Don't tell me that love is all there is
I know, don't I?
Don't crowd me, pappy
Got too much to think about
The game's not lost if I say it's not
And it's not
Give me one more chance to do things right
Don't crowd me, pappy
Got too much to think about
There's no talking to her, talking to her
I'll keep my thoughts to myself
Unless I'm asked
Like blemishes upon the skin
Truth sets in
Life's for the taking, so they say
Take it away
I fall outside of her
She doesn't notice
She doesn't notice at all
And mine is an empty bed
I think she's forgotten
All is bloated and far from truth
Let's secure that reputation
Place the dummy upon the roof
Stitch him a tongue, give him proof
Don't tell him love is all there is
I know, I know
Just pull the wool down over his eyes
One more time
Her heart's a foreign place
I visited for a while
And although I tried to please her
She came at night and stole my visa
Come away now, run away now, little man
You'll not make sense of it
Try as you might to understand
Like blemishes upon the skin
Truth sets in
