Lyrics
Now that you?ve grown tired of me
Every day just falls into the same old routine
And nothings left to chance
I got on my dancin? shoes but no one?s in the band
It?s a long lonely life
To be with you and not be given any of your time
It?s a long lonely life
Seeing that your love for me is dyin? on the vine
Maybe we?re out of time
And I just wanna know, where we go from here
Who do you feel is in the wrong this time
Maybe before we walk away
Let?s not forget what we had said
To love and to cherish and to hold
A blink of an eye we?ll be sorry and we?ll be old
Chorus
And I just wanna know, where we go from here
Who do you feel is in the wrong this time
Maybe we?re out of time
But can we turn this love on a dime
And I just wanna know, where we go from here
Who do you feel is in the wrong this time
And I wanna know where we go from here
Who do you feel, is it me again this time
It?s a long lonely life
To be with you and not be given any of your time
