thank you, nowhere

[ taking care ]

i've heard that one is such a lonely number
and it always makes me wonder
what would i be without you?

just your presense makes me feel so alive
isn't that what everyone strives
in their life to do?

but i've given you too much credit
for what i've accomplished and, yet it's
still me that makes it all come about

so i guess one ain't so lonely
and you're not my one and only
and is their really any doubt?

that you dissapeared, i've shed my tears for you
but now you're coming home
and i just want you to know
that you left me, cold, on hold
with nothing more than a dial tone to listen to
so i'm taking care, how about you?

so now i won't play the compromiser
now that i am all the wiser
to your little game

and how charming words and looks can decieve
you stole my heart and then took your leave
to you, it's all the same

i'm tired of making up excuses
telling myself that it's useless
giving you the benefit of the doubt

i've wasted too much energy
wishing that you could love me
i think it's time i take a different route

so you dissapeared, i've shed my tears for you
but now you're coming home
and i just want you to know
that you left me, cold, on hold
with nothing more than a dial tone to listen to
so i'm taking care, how about you?
