[Verse 1]
You're going too soon
So I'll guess
What makes you wanna run away from
All this?
Now, I hate to say that I was wrong
But I did
Is it too late to clue me in?

[Chorus 1]
Remembering the words you had to say
You and me were born on separate days
And I don't know why you take the time to stay so long
Then you blow by

[Verse 2]
Digging ditches all night long
Doesn't get it
Piling bricks to prove I'm strong
Gotta quit it
And it looks to me like I'll never meet
Your demands
By surrendering again

[Chorus 2]
You promised everything you took away
Remembering the words you said to me
You and me were born on separate days
And I don't know why you take the time to stay so long
Then you blow by
[Chorus 3]
You left a bill of goods I have to pay
I'd rather die alone than live this way
You and me were born on separate days
And I don't know why you take the time to stay so long
Then you blow by
