Hey

Won´t somebody come along
And teach me how to keep it alive?
To survive.
Come along and show me something
That I never knew in your eyes.
Take away the tournicate.
I used to be so full of my confidence,
I used to know just what I wanted and just where to go.
More than ever I could use a coincidence,
But now I walk alone and talk about it when I know.
Hey, oh yeah, how long?
I guess I ought to walk away,
Hey, oh yeah, so long...
What you gonna do today?
I don´t wanna have to, but I will,
If that´s what I´m supposed to do.
We don´t wanna set up for the kill,
But that´s what I´m about to do.
Let it on, I´ll cut you off when you´re screaming into the phone.
Hard to own.
Anyway, I wanna let you know that everything is on hold.
What you gonna do to me?
You used to be so warm and affectionate.
All the little things I used to hear my fairy say,
But now you´re quick to get into your regret.
I´ll take the fall and now you got to give it all away.
Hey, oh yeah, how long?
I guess I ought to walk away,
Hey, oh yeah, so long...
What you gonna do today?
I don´t wanna have to, but I will,
If that´s what I´m supposed to do.
We don´t wanna set up for the kill,
But that´s what I´m about to do.
Hey, what would you say if I stayed?
Stayed for a while, if I may.
Say it again and I´ll come around,
But not for the last time...
Hey, what would you say if I changed?
I´ll change everything but my name.
Play it again and I´ll come around,
But not for the last time.
You used to be so warm and affectionate;
I used to know just what I wanted and just where to go.
And now you´re quick to get into your regret;
And now I walk alone and talk about it when I know...
Hey, oh yeah, how long?
I guess you gotta walk away;
Hey, oh yeah, so long...
What you gonna do today?
Hey, oh yeah, how long?
I guess you gotta get away;
Hey, oh yeah, so long...
What you gonna do today?
And teach me how to keep it alive?
To survive.
