Don't tell me about the nature of desire 
I sit and watch you 
Twisted, tangled in the wire 
I'm on the road now 

And you're glad to see me go 
I guess you'll sit outside 
And watch your flowers grow. 

Oh, I never knew the rounds 
I'd take for loving you. 
I hope you're happy with your life 
I guess you'll sleep along tonight. 

I used to wonder 
How you kept me down so long 
I'm glad to say 
That now I'm back where I belong. 

I'm on the road now 
And I'm wishing I was fast asleep 
I thinking of the promises 
You never seem to keep. 

Oh, I never knew the rounds 
I'd take for loving you. 
I hope you're happy with your life 
I guess you'll sleep along tonight. 

Don't try and change my mind. 
There's nothing left to say. 
Yea you've been buying time 
But now you're gonna pay. 

So don't tell me 
About the nature of desire 
I sit and watch you 
Twisted, tangled in the wire. 

I'm on the road now 
And I'm glad to see me go. 
I guess I'll sit outside 
And watch the flowers grow. 

Oh, I never knew the rounds 
I'd take for loving you. 
I hope you're happy with your life 
I guess you'll sleep along tonight.
