Your ex-girlfriend told me you were having a bad time
Your ex-girlfriend told me you were having a bad time<br>
Day-to-day life shouldn't be what it's all about
Day-to-day life shouldn't be what it's all about<br>
Day-to-day life is something we all know too much about
Day-to-day life is something we all know too much about<br>
I guess you got no one to take care of you
I guess you got no one to take care of you


Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying
Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying<br>
I didn't know things were going so bad for you
I didn't know things were going so bad for you<br>
Maybe you're just trying to get her to come back to you
Maybe you're just trying to get her to come back to you<br>
Or work your way out of the cynical attitudes
Or work your way out of the cynical attitudes<br>
that protect you
that protect you


Bad habits make our decisions for us
Bad habits make our decisions for us<br>
You should try to remember,
You should try to remember,<br>
all you're holding is a handful of dust
all you're holding is a handful of dust


It's not even closing time
It's not even closing time<br>
And already stars are falling out of the sky
And already stars are falling out of the sky<br>
You're all lit up, you gotta do something
You're all lit up, you gotta do something<br>
I'll help you try
I'll help you try


Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying
Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying<br>
Now do you believe the stories
Now do you believe the stories<br>
when you're life's not buying
when you're life's not buying<br>
I guess you got no one to take care of you
I guess you got no one to take care of you
