歌詞

She came into my room at two o'clock in the afternoon And she said that she had a desperate need To talk about our relationship and wasn't it time that we called it quits But she cried when I said that I kind of agreed I didn't know what to say I began to wish I was dead Crazy me crazy me I thought that she meant what she said She said she wanted to hear me say that I'd always want to be near her I asked, "Well why isn't that what you said?" She turned and cried some more and when she left she slammed the door Then I sighed with relief and sat down on my bed My jaw nearly hit the floor I couldn't believe my eyes Twenty minutes later when I opened the door And she was standing right outside I said, "Hey what the hell are you still doing here?" and she said, "Well I thought you were gonna come after me" I rolled my eyes and told her, "You should really be acting older You're thirty years old and I'm just twenty-three" CHORUS: Then she rode away On a bicycle built for two All alone To make her leave was beyond my power so we hugged for half an hour And I know for sure because I checked My cowboy secret space detective super hero radioactive Message decoding watch behind her neck Two hours later she finally left And this time she was really gone I sat done immediately And I began to write this song I was out on New Year's Eve and as I was getting ready to leave I saw her approach from across the bar So I pretended I was plastered, she found out and called me a bastard But she followed me home anyway in her car We argued right outside my door It was unbelievably cold My toes were getting kind of numb So I told her that I had to go Now I live in fear every time I see her coming near I try to hide but I can't get away I'm sick of lies and compromises averting eyes and wearing disguises She stalks me twenty-four hours a day CHORUS
