A very simple statement
A very simple crime
A lot of grief reflecting in how we spend our time
I want to change things 
I want to make a change
I'm tired of spending time agonizing yesterdays
 
Shame on me
Shame on you
Shame on every little thing that we do
Shame on me 
Shame on you
Now's there's only one thing that we can do.
 
Another empty day
Another day comes true
A lot of selfish dreams are waiting here for you
I've got to have you
I've got no one to blame
It's just the two of us 
With nothing left to say
But..
 
Shame on me 
Shame on you
Shame on every little thing that we do
Shame on me
Shame on you
Now there's only one thing we can do
 
Shame on me
Shame on you
Shame on me 
Shame on you
I've got to change things 
I've got to make a change
I'm tired of spending time agonizing yesterdays
 
Shame on me
Shame on you
