Maybe I've forgotten
The name and the address
Of everyone I've ever known
It's nothing I regretSave it for another day
It's the school exam
And the kids have run awayI would like a place I could call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up every day that would be a start
I would not complain of my wounded heartI was upset you see
Almost all the time
You used to be a stranger
Now you are mineI wouldn't even trust you
I've not got much to give
We're dealing in the limits
And we don't know who withYou may think that I'm out of hand
That I'm naive, I'll understand
On this occasion, it's not true
Look at me, I'm not youI would like a place I could call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up every day that would be a start
I would not complain of my wounded heartI was a short fuse
Burning all the time
You are a complete stranger
Now you are mineI would like a place I could call my own
Have a conversation on the telephone
Wake up every day that would be a start
I would not complain about my wounded heartJust wait till tomorrow
I guess that's what they all say
Just before they fall apartI was upset you see
Almost all the time
You used to be a stranger
Now you are mine
