lyrics

Dim down the lights now
Is this really me?
Blow out the candles
Is this really me?

Downstream from the night brigade I melt out of the pouring rain

Snafus surrounding
Is this really me?
Familiar surroundings
Is this really me?

How come every love of mine's just several weeks of borrowed time
You’ve got to be kidding me
If I had a dime for every love or lost affection I’d be rich and lonely

There are holes in your stories you just can’ be believed
You act cold you act distant, and history repeats

Every pointless confrontation
Every pause, excuse or explanation
If I had a dime for every time I drove you crazy I’d be rich and lonely

Crimson and clover I still believe
The worst is over, I still believe

Every time I run she flips the switch and light comes crashing in
You’ve got to be kidding me
If I had a dime for every time you proved me wrong
Well I’d be rich and lonely
Well I’d be rich and lonely

If I had a dime for every time you proved me wrong
Well I’d be rich and lonely
