Lyrics
it's a Monday afternoon
the rain is pouring down
the window's shut real tight
The waitress took my order
I couldn't find the sugar
I couldn't find the spoon
I couldn't hear the laughter
it ended all too soon
the evening turned it's head
the sun was going down
the wind was picking up
I turned around the corner
I missed the bus again
I passed some empty benches
I won't get home till ten
Don't you know who I am
Don't you know it's me
Don't you know a simple man
is all I'm meant to be
can barely reach the stairs
I cannot find my keys
I opened up my door
and fall down to my knees
it used to be so easy
kisses blown my way
I used to hear the laughter
now all I feel is pain
Don't you know who I am
Don't you know it's me
Don't you know a simple man
is all I'm meant to be
