Time after time

You close that door

And say to me:

"Can't stand no more"

But every time

When I'm away

You call to me:

"Please come and stay!"

[Chorus]

You know it's hard to carry on

If you don't love me anymore

You say you need to lean on me

But can I too, lean on...

You want it all

To be young and free

Have family

But can't you see:

You can't decide

What's right or wrong

Don't think no more

It's time to go!

[Chorus]

You talk me 'bout your self esteem

How you think I've flushed it down the drain

You know the mirror hanging at your wall?

Take a good look in it and you'll find the real cause!

[Chorus]

You know it's hard to carry on

If you don't love me anymore

You say you need to lean on me

But can I too, lean on...
