As I reflect back on it now I can see where we went wrong Our disunion was there from the start It just took some time to dawn But early on you drew me close And you said that I was one among your own But as the time went by I looked to my side And saw I was all alone For all those years I did it all your way And I could still show you the scars But when I did you turned your face away At least I know now what you are So I'll keep my distance You wonder if I'm still around Yeah I'm still in town but I keep mostly to myself But I'm still dumb enough to hope that you will call my phone And say you want me back But you won't For all those years I did it all your way And I could still show you the scars But when I did you turned your face away At least I know now what you are So I'll keep my distance Now that your words come back to you You're empty promises show through It's now what you say it's what you do By your own insistence And when nobody's there for you Then you'll know what you put me through That day you'll be somebody new And that's when I'll close the distance
