Dont tell me about the nature of desire
I sit and watch you
Twisted, tangled in the wire
Im on the road now
And youre glad to see me go
I guess youll sit outside
And watch your flowers grow.
Oh, I never knew the rounds
Id take for loving you.
I hope youre happy with your life
I guess youll sleep along tonight.
I used to wonder
How you kept me down so long
Im glad to say
That now Im back where I belong.
Im on the road now
And Im wishing I was fast asleep
I thinking of the promises
You never seem to keep.
Oh, I never knew the rounds
Id take for loving you.
I hope youre happy with your life
I guess youll sleep along tonight.
Dont try and change my mind.
Theres nothing left to say.
Yea youve been buying time
But now youre gonna pay.
So dont tell me
About the nature of desire
I sit and watch you
Twisted, tangled in the wire.
Im on the road now
And Im glad to see me go.
I guess Ill sit outside
And watch the flowers grow.
Oh, I never knew the rounds
Id take for loving you.
I hope youre happy with your life
I guess youll sleep along tonight.
