Lyrics

Coming Up Short

I think you've gone too far
And now I'm losing you
And I've had the cleanest sheet
And now I'm back in the backseat
It's colder where you are
And I know that you find it hard
But I think that it's just a game that I've got to play

Tell me
Oh, won't you tell me?
Oh, won't you tell me
What you're thinking?
Oh, won't you?

She said, "I want to be yours" but I'm coming up short
And I don't know why
She said, "I want to be yours" and I'm going blind
And I don't know why
And I don't know why

I think we've gone too far
And now I'll tell the truth
That I've had the weirdest week
And now I'm back in the backseat
It's colder when we're apart
And I know that you find it hard
But I think that's it's just a game that I've got to play

Tell me
Oh, won't you tell me?
Oh, won't you tell me
What you're thinking?
Oh, won't you?

She said, "I want to be yours" but I'm coming up short
And I don't know why
She said, "I want to be yours" and I'm going blind
And I don't know why
And I don't know why

She said, "I want to be yours" but I'm coming up short
And I don't know why
She said, "I want to be yours" and I'm going blind
And I don't know why
And I don't know why

I'm coming up short, I'm coming up short
I'm coming up short, I'm coming up short
I'm coming up short, I'm coming up short
I'm coming up short, I'm coming up short
I'm coming up short, I'm coming up short
