You said adjust your heels girl
They stick out like an anchor
Don't touch the flowers
'cause you can't hear them well
Couldn't last forever
Lord knows it's gonna end sometimeThis is not an order
You don't have to be here
Can you understand me
Screamin like the wind blows
Did I blow your mind
Leave you breathlessI guess I've changed but ya couldn't you
Given all we've been through when
Heaven knows I've been around and aroundPlaying Sixteen Candles,
I'm scared of the bright lights and
Girl, try not to touch me
So you don't feel me
Or you can touch my shoulder
Put your lips to my ears
And scream is there anyone home
Won't you answer meI guess I've changed but ya couldn't you
Given all we've been through when
Heaven knows I've been around and around
I guess I've strained well how bout that
Here's my life, here's a doorstep
Heaven knows I've been around and aroundI guess it's been a good year
For roses and aggressions
For flowers and freeways
I guess I'll put a smile on
Or get a new girlfriend
Ya put a new hat on for onceThis is not an order
You don't have to answer
Only need to listen
If only for a moment
Did I blow your mind girl
Did I leave you breathless I saidI guess I've changed ya couldnt you
Given all we've been through
Heaven knows I've been around and around
I guess I've strained well how bout that
Here's my life, here's a doorstep well
Heaven knows I've been around and around
'cause I've been around and around
'cause I've been around and around
'cause I've been around and around
I've been around and around
