I try so hard I don't know what to do

I'm gonna lose my mind if I can't have you

The brake lights are on and nobody's home

I can hear you talking on the telephone

And my baby has the blues again

Somehow they just seem to hit him

And I'm breaking up again with another long term boyfriend



I believe that you're leaving

And I believe you're already gone

You're already gone



If you can't find love you've gotta find a method

Of learning to live in the world today

I don't know what it was that I expected

I guess I'm a fool to want perfection

And I'm breaking up again with another long term boyfriend



I believe that you're leaving

And I believe you're already gone

I better believe what I'm seeing

'cause I believe that it's so long

It's so long as in 'see ya

I try so hard I don't know what to do

It's obvious I won't end up with you

The brake lights are on and it's so clear

You can't pretend you wanna be here

This train of thought has arrived at the station

We don't need anymore contemplation

And I'm breaking up again with another long term boyfriend
