| And when she turns away from me
|
| I don’t know where to look
|
| I’ve tried my best, done everything
|
| They’ve written in the book
|
| I know it’s not a fantasy
|
| 'Cause this thing is too real
|
| Maybe she’s trying to break the man in me
|
| But she don’t know how I feel
|
| I’ve got to get it together
|
| Ain’t gonna stay here forever
|
| Got to show that it’s not alright
|
| Hold on to my integrity so tight
|
| (I can’t wait no more
|
| That’s right walking out the door
|
| Should have done it long ago but you know
|
| When you know that you’re out of time)
|
| Why must you treat me so?
|
| Lady, I want you to know
|
| How I truly do feel
|
| And lately it hurts me
|
| I’m wishing that this wasn’t real
|
| My love, my time, my heart, my soul
|
| All waste in vain
|
| And I put it to you, there’s nothing left
|
| Release me and ease the pain
|
| I’ve got to get it together
|
| Ain’t gonna stay here forever
|
| Got to show that it’s not alright
|
| Hold on to my integrity so tight
|
| (I can’t wait no more
|
| That’s right walking out the door
|
| Should have done it long ago but you know
|
| When you know that your out of time)
|
| Why must you treat me so? |
