Now you've slipped away
And found a place to stay
Who do I congratulate?
But I'm happy for youWhere are you today?
I sense that you're afraid
And I don't know what to doI miss you but what does it change?
This confusion feels the same
Forget you and let you leave
But I'm still thinkin' it throughIt's been the conflict between us
That's kept me from sinking before
You drove me crazy and I let you
Come, do it some morePut the past to bed
We've done it beforeNow we're back and forth again
Can we help this pointless thing?
Swingin' like a hinge
To the place we always meetThere's nothing to say
Except loneliness is strange
'Cause you wear the face
That I never can leaveAnd I know you're gonna call
'Cause you know just where I'll be
Once you come and find me here
I'll be happy for meSo happy to be not alone anymore
We've done it beforeNow we're back and forth again
Can we help this pointless thing?
Swingin' like a hinge
To the place we always meetIt's such a shame how little things
Can change your minds
Don't just sit there filing your nails
And passing the timeI can't let you bottle it up
And take it too far
Carrying all of that weight
Is the hardest partNow we're back and forth again
Can we help this pointless thing?
Swingin' like a hinge
To the place we always meetBack and forth again
Back and forth again
Back and forth again
