Every Time I Look For You

Never found out why you left him, but this answer begs a question

Too blind to see tomorrow, too broke to beg or borrow

Young and stupid (left wide open)

Hearts are wasted (lives are broken)

One more point of contention, I need some intervention

Approached with vague intentions, betray my short attention

Span the distance (bridge the border)

Beg forgiveness ('round the corner)

Every time I look for you, the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you, the sun goes down once more

Will the last one out please shut the door?

More time apart will give you a few more months to argue

Is this too much to live through, it always seems too far to

Drive the point home (send more letters)

Pray tomorrow (ends up better)

Every time I look for you, the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you, the sun goes down once more

Will the last one out please shut the door?

I never did do anything that she asked

I never let what happened stay in the past

I never did quite understand what she meant

In spite of everything, in spite of everything

Every time I look for you, the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you, the sun goes down

And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground

I left another message, you are never around

But every time I look for you, the sun goes down
