Monday is running long
Hand stamp is rubbing off
Calling it a day soon
That's when I hear from you
You feel you've run aground
You say you've come around
Ready to make that move
But what is it gonna prove
Can't say that nobody wants you
The anniversary flowers come through
Don't compare it to what I'd do
Back when you were mine
You're bored with ballet shows
Getting tired of rich girls' clothes
Longing for simpler times
Loving with simpler minds
Yeah, maybe we have grown
And yes, I'm very much alone
But don't trade a restless heart
For three to be torn apart
Can't say that nobody wants you
The anniversary flowers come through
Don't compare it to what I'd do
Back when you were mine
When elements overcome you
And in the morning there's frost instead of dew
At least there's someone who loves you
Like when you were mine
Everybody knows there's only one way
It's going down
Everybody knows you only need
A hill to climb
My dirt under your nails, wind in your sails
Nothing too profound
And you'll be back on Broadway
I'll be getting back in line
Can't say that nobody wants you
The anniversary flowers come through
Don't compare it to what I'd do
Back when you were mine
When elements overcome you
And in the morning there's frost instead of dew
At least there's someone who loves you
Like when you were mine
