| All the trouble I make through the things I do
|
| They keep catching up with me
|
| They tend to leave us to
|
| I don’t always know when I’m right
|
| But I sure know when I’m wrong
|
| I’m feeling self pity and yet
|
| Still writing sad stupid songs
|
| She says you
|
| Say what you want
|
| Do what you say
|
| These are critical times
|
| Love is fading away
|
| We can go through the tops
|
| And we can live through these games
|
| It never changes how it feels
|
| When your love is fading away
|
| You lose all track of yourself
|
| When you’re feeling that way
|
| You could always hide yourself in corners
|
| Worrying about all the miserable things but
|
| Everyone seems to swim in it
|
| It makes the world go round
|
| I’m somewhere floundering
|
| Feeling like I’ve been drowned
|
| So I say what I want
|
| And I do what I say
|
| These are critical times
|
| Love is fading away
|
| I can go through the tops
|
| And I can live through these games
|
| It never changes how it feels
|
| When your love is fading
|
| I don’t believe in much
|
| And I never gave it time
|
| To tell anybody how I’m willing to give to them
|
| All my life yeah
|
| I don’t believe it
|
| She has a look there in her eyes
|
| She’s trying to get through to me
|
| She’s gonna stick this out one more time
|
| So you’re cruisin' down the road of life
|
| Should be feeling strong
|
| You never had the feeling yet
|
| And it always leads you all wrong
|
| You’re best when you grab hold of yourself
|
| Since you know you’re gonna fall
|
| You can check out on me any time that you like
|
| Love is bittersweet, that’s all
|
| So we say what we want
|
| And we do what we say
|
| These are critical times
|
| Love is fading away
|
| We can go through the tops
|
| And we can live through these games
|
| It never changes how it feels
|
| When your love is fading
|
| Oh no you say what you want (say what you want)
|
| And you do what you say (you do what you do by now that)
|
| These are critical times
|
| Love is fading away
|
| We can go through the tops (through the tops)
|
| And we can live through these games
|
| It never changes how we feel. |
