lyrics

There's another rogue sailor hangin' on your arm tonight,
and he's wearing out his welcome underneath these dirty bar lights
So I'd better call a tailor, cause these rags ain't gonna do,
and I never knew loneliness til I was living with you

I waited all night and day to see your ship come in,
but I should've known you'd just go and let me down alone again,
'Cause honey you've got me beat, got me feeling so god damn low,
got me feeling like I'm running, feeling like I'm falling alone,

I spent all my life waiting for you
and all my dreams to come true
I spent all my time and my money too,
but I never knew what lonely was til I was living with you

All I ever wanted, well it came around too fast,
but your mind was made up you were staying right there in the past,
Maybe that's how it goes, with all them other boys,
but I don't wanna sit on your shelf like some broken toy

I spent all my life waiting for you
and all my dreams to come true
I spent all my time and my money too,
but I never knew what lonely was til I was living with you

I spent all my life waiting for you
and all my dreams to come true
I spent all my time and my money too,
but I never knew what lonely was til I was living with you
