as i wander through this house
|
where my man became a mouse
|
i can see how we started so innocently.
|
as i agonize my way through another yesterday
|
i still don't know how you could have sunk so low
|
|
you wouldn't follow me with the rest of them
|
now i'm by myself.
|
you wouldn't protect me from the rest of them
|
i'm beside myself and i'm trying to forget...
|
|
as i wrap up the things we shared
|
i try to convince myself i never cared
|
yet i feel that we were the only real thing.
|
when i think back to when we were one
|
then you accuse me of things i never could've done
|
and you never confessed of looking for excuses.
|
|
you wouldn't follow me with the rest of them
|
now i'm by myself.
|
you wouldn't protect me from the rest of them
|
i'm beside myself and i'm trying to forget...
|
|
so i retreat to my family
|
who showed you endless generosity and yes,
|
i hear a sigh of disbelief.
|
and i will go on with my life, court another,
|
maybe gain a wife and i'll try to outgrow
|
just going through the motions.
|
|
you wouldn't follow me with the rest of them
|
now i'm by myself
|
you will alwasy be a step ahead in the back of my head
|
while i'm trying to forget
|
i'm trying to forget you...
