But youre not to blame
~#**************#~
Baby, I see you for who you are
~#**************#~
A one-time apple queen
~#**************#~
And a one-time tramp
~#**************#~
And an old-time movie star
~#**************#~
Youre a shell picker
~#**************#~
Of the pickiest kind
~#**************#~
But you always find the ones to keep
~#**************#~
And in or out of bed
~#**************#~
You keep your head wide open
~#**************#~
‘Cause you dont only dream when youre asleep
~#**************#~
Like a child, you remember
~#**************#~
But I forget all my dreams
~#**************#~
I used to think
~#**************#~
That someday Id relax a little
~#**************#~
And be more like you
~#**************#~
Then I realized
~#**************#~
How silly that thought was
~#**************#~
I needed to stand in my own shoes
~#**************#~
And from over here
~#**************#~
I can see you cry
~#**************#~
Dont even try to pretend
~#**************#~
‘Cause hes hurt you
~#**************#~
So many times
~#**************#~
Baby, dont go back again
~#**************#~
Like a child, you forget
~#**************#~
But I remember everything and every sting
~#**************#~
And through all the games
~#**************#~
Well both stay the same
~#**************#~
As weve always been
~#**************#~
Through the fat and the thin
~#**************#~
Until the end
~#**************#~
Until the end
