i don't even try |
|
I
thought I had your number - there must be some mistake |
I
dialled 6 - 3 - 7 - 11 - 88 |
I
got some geezer; said his girlfriend's on the town |
I
said, "I've got the wrong number," and I slammed the phone
down |
|
Thought
about it for a minute 'til the anger went away |
I
figure every dog in town is gonna have his day |
Well,
I could count the teardrops, or I could wonder why |
Well
I used to be your lover - now I don't even try |
|
It
was champagne parties and sweet love sins |
Now
it's warm beer at midnight and girlie magazines |
I
stack the empty cans up like a freshman in school |
It's
the kind of thing you're into when you ain't nobody's fool |
|
Got
my socks in the oven, something's growing in the sink |
I
can't begin to face the day without a couple of drinks |
Ain't
had a decent meal since you made me cry |
Well
I used to be your lover - now I don't even try |
|
Memories,
take a look at what you've done to me |
It's
gettin' so all I do is watch TV |
Can't
even prove that I'm alive |
|
Well,
I thought I had your number - there must be some mistake |
I
dialled 6-3-7-1-1-8-8 |
I
got some geezer; said his girlfriend's on the town |
I
said, "I've got the wrong number," and I slammed the phone
down |
|
But
I know the number's right and you're his girl |
Though
I wouldn't want to face it for the whole wide world |
Don't
come back baby, I think I'm gonna die |
Well
I used to be your lover, now I don't even try |
I
used to be your lover, now I don't even try |
