This ain't up tempo, this ain't no positive
This ain't no music meant for jumping up and down
This is a sad song, more than three minutes long
It took a lifetime just to come this far
This thing is serious, we're in a big mess
We're at the junction of forever and goodbye
If this is where we're going
Well, hello, honey, here we are
Are you gonna leave or do i have to stay
All wound up tight with this tension and anxiety
Can't take one minute more, what am i in this for
It's like i love you and i hate you at the same time

I think this jig is up, i think i've had enough
I think i'm running outta reasons not to let you go
I've faced the music
It's over for the rhythm and the rhyme

Chorus:
Baby, this is a hook, last line and sinker
A moldy oldie on the radio you remember but it's over and done
It's the end of the dance, let's take it out with a new song
A little thing called the blues in the key of love

No place left to go when the good is gone
One line away from a brand new song

Repeat chorus
