Honesty is a wasted thing
Do you say what you mean?
Do you say anything at all?
When you call, I can't tell

On the line, I take my time
'Cause I already know
I know what's on your mind
'Cause you, you're too blue

One of these days you get to the place
And help yourself
And someday you leave me out of the way

All we ever had is gone tomorrow
All we ever had is gone tomorrow

I could count the ways
I could do the same thing
Make it sting, make it smart
I'll only take a minute with you
Only for you

Some other time, some other place
You're anywhere else
But where I am today
For you, you're too blue
Honestly, you're a wasted thing
You don't say what you mean
You don't mean what you say at all
When you call, I can tell

I know it so well that life is hell
Lost the spark
Feeling 'round in the dark
'Cause with you, you're too blue

All we ever had is gone tomorrow
All we ever had is gone tomorrow

I could count the ways
I could do the same thing
Make it sting, make it smart
I'll only take a minute with you

Some other time, some other place
For you, you're too blue
Some other time, some other place
For you, you're too blue
