I've done everything I can just to keep you here
Short of slitting my wrists or chopping off my ear
I won't cry if you say good bye
I'll just start all over again

Well I went to church I answered Jesus' call
They were speaking in tongues & my flesh began to crawl
I praised the Lord in the psycho ward
Then I start all over again

I'm gonna start my engine flap my wings
Get far away from all those things that bother me
You included
I might be desperate but I'm not deluded

Cause there may come a time when you want me again
You'll be sleeping somewhere with a friend of a friend
I'll just laugh and I'll take you back
And we can start all over again
