lyrics

How long
Has it been since we've been on the phone?
I've been thinking too much
And drinking too much
Mulling over where we went wrong

I know
We've got different ways of how we cope
You've got your friends
And I still depend on
You to get lost so I can be needed

I know
There's something wrong with me
Cause I can't help
But ruin myself
When it comes to you and me

It's been a week
I know that's long enough for us to see
That what we could get after we laid us to rest
Is only someone easy

So why
Did we do this to ourselves?
I know we oughta move on and we oughta be strong
But I'm pathetic and I hope you are too

Well, really, I know
That you are
Cause my sister saw you last night
She saw you driving home
All alone
You didn't even have on your headlights

But I know the feeling, babe
It's hard to see the light of day
When we're feeling this way

Now you've made your bed
You fled the country, got a job in France
Well my offer still stands
I'll still be your man
When you're ready
