I’ve got way too much to say, but I’ll try anyway
She’s been tempting me all day, but I’ve just turned away
CHORUS
I’ve been all alone
Waiting by the phone
She called up to say
“What are you doing for Valentine’s Day?”
What if we could just pretend we’d never reached the end
Just for one night no more friends, then go back again
CHORUS
Why was that so goddamn weird when you came over here?
I’ve had a most unsettling fear of another aimless year
And that’s why it’s so weird when you come over here
And you whisper in my ear all the things I just can’t hear
And you’re making it all too clear that you just can’t fight this fear
We’ve been all alone, waiting by the phone
We picked up today, and we said
“What are we doing for Valentine’s Day?”
“What are you doing for Valentine’s Day?”
What am I doing but wasting away?
What does it matter? It’s over anyway.
