Last night we went to bed not talkin'
'Cause we'd already said too much
I faced the wall you faced the window
Bound and determined not to touch

We've been married seven years now
Some days it feels like twenty-one
I'm still mad at you this mornin'
Coffee's ready if you want some
I've been up since five thinkin' 'bout me and you
And I gotta tell ya the conclusion I've come to

I'll never leave I'll never stray
My love for you will never change
But I ain't ready to make up
We'll get around to that
I think I'm right I think you're wrong
I'll probably give in before long
Please don't make me smile
I just wanna be mad for a while

For now you might as well forget it
Don't run your fingers through my hair
Yeah that's right I'm bein' stubborn
No I don't wanna go back upstairs
I'm gonna leave for work without a goodbye kiss
But as I'm drivin' off just remember this

I'll never leave I'll never stray
My love for you will never change
But I ain't ready to make up
We'll get around to that
I think I'm right I think you're wrong
I'll probably give in before long
Please don't make me smile
I just wanna be mad for a while

I'll never leave I'll never stray
My love for you will never change
But I ain't ready to make up
We'll get around to that
I think I'm right I think you're wrong
I'll probably give in before long
Please don't make me smile
I just wanna be mad for a while
