It's a long way to the other room While I'm grading papers and tying shoes You never had much to lose So I'm blaming you for these hopeless blues What's to say when the kids are gone? I've made up the beds and been left alone You look at me, as cold as a stone There's no way to write what's been done wrong You left me a fool So what to do? Hold me down if I'm running off They say it gets better, baby, soon enough So I'll shut my mouth and I'll steal my heart I still feel like a girl, thinking when we started, but I want to feel the fire again, with you or anybody else I want to feel the fear again, with you or anybody else So what to do? What to do?
