Dont take this the wrong way, standing in the archway
led astray by an ashtray, and pushed you away
played like a play in broadway, sick of being this way
you always delay and display, today was thursday..
gray like a hatchway, see you in the hallway
avoid you like a highway, hide in my hayday
sir this is mayday, lost us midway
wake at noonday, to hide in the passways
this is my pathway, payed on payday
to play at the cafe, the message we convey
is replay and repay, relay and we'll stay
and this was friday
Chorus:
i, could tell, today, my sorries were too far away.
and i'd say, them too late. i'll try again somehow, someway.
Out with the old news, in with the new
one likes smoking, one likes booze
one likes to argue, the other's confused
one cries softly, the other's amused
i used bamboo, to cure my bruise
payed my dues, missed cues, you choose
i'm sick of trying, you need an excuse
the glue unsticks and the fights debut
you're too uptight, and i hang loose
i was misused, and now you lose
my good intentions and i refuse
the best cues and rescues are overdue
Chorus
I waited for you to lose your grip
cuz i'd do that for you
