You're the kind of man that takes what he can and doesn't ask
Well this trait I can't condone but I am told that in this state I acquiesce
Occasionally a man for free is exactly what I need
And how long has it been since I have given in to what I see what's right in front of me?
Now I'm all alone and far from home and I don't always know what's good for me
The more time that we spend in my bed and your playing with my head I get turned around, around, around
Cuz you use me up, and you wear me down when I'm ahead I give up when I'm glad I frown
And I'm this way and I'm that way cuz it's your way or the high way
Cuz you use me up and you wear me down yeah you use me up and you wear me down
Well you're the kind of man that wants what he can't have and so it goes
I guess that I'm the same so who's to blame, just the same I'd like to know
Occasionally some room to breathe is exactly what I need
And how long has it been since I have had a friend that'll make me see what's right in front of me
Now I am all alone and far from home and I don't always know what's good for me
The more time that we spend in my bed and your playing with my head I get turned around around around

Ooooh oooh oooh

Cuz you use me up
And you wear me down
When I'm ahead I give up
When I'm glad I frown
I'm this way and I'm that way cuz it's your way or the high way
Oh you use me up
And you wear me down
When I'm ahead I give up
When I'm glad I frown
I'm this way and I'm that way cuz it's your way or the high way

You use me up
You wear me down
You use me up
You wear me down
