I go up and you go downwards The pavement underneath our feet You hold me down, you hold me down Long enough that I can barely breathe I go forth, so you go backwards The distance growing in between You let me down, you let me down But every time you walk I weep Oh my God, what a sad story The two of us on a lonely road I don't know what I wouldn't give to get back Back in your arms when the day is over Ask me why I lie to you Isn't it obvious you don't like the truth? Hey, common sense won't guide us all the way You know that I've been standing right before you Scared to breathe in case you blow away any day Oh my God, what a sad story The two of us on a lonely road I don't know what I wouldn't give to get back Back in your arms when the day is over Yeah, oh my God, what a sad story The two of us on a lonely road I don't know what I wouldn't give to get back Back in your arms when the day is over I go out while you go under You're burning up and breaking in You love me now, you love me more than ever Now that I'm standing in the doorway Prettier than I have ever been any day Oh my God, what a sad story The two of us on a lonely road I don't know what I wouldn't give to get back Back in your arms when the day is over Oh my God, what a sad story The two of us on a lonely road I don't know what I wouldn't give to get back Back in your arms when the day is over
