Yeah, yeah, yeah Now it's falling around you Pick up the pieces, you know they won't fit Teardrops are falling down like rain Ocean water surrounds you I see you coming 'round again, I know Now I realize (Whoa, oh) That I'll be fine, and I'll forget you Will you ever learn? That there's more to life than helping yourself Will I reach out my hand? And stop you from falling, which starts this over again This time, there's nowhere left to talk As I run down the boardwalk Trying hard to forget your face, I know Wish I could finally find the strength To open up your letters I think I'll throw them all away instead 'Cause now I realize (Whoa, oh) That I'll be fine, and I'll forget you Will you ever learn? That there's more to life than helping yourself Will I reach out my hand? And stop you from falling, which starts this over again Don't know if I can bring myself To open up your letters Maybe I'll throw them all away, forget you all together Know now, I'm waiting back at home Know now, I'm waiting back at home And I am starving for affection, 'tion Affection, 'tion Affection, 'tion Affection, 'tion When will I finally find the strength To open up your letters? I think I'll throw them all away, forget you all together When will I find my way back home? Find my way on back home My way back home Now it's falling around you Pick up the pieces, you know they won't fit
