This ain't uptempo this ain't no positive

This ain't no music meant for jumping up and down

This is a sad song more than three minutes long

It took a lifetime just to come this far

This thing is serious we're in a big mess

We're at the junction of forever and goodbye

If this is where we're going well hello honey here we are

Are you gonna leave or do I have to say

All wound up tight with this tension and anexiety

Can't take one minute more what am I in this for

It's like I love you and hate you at the same time

I think this jig is up I think I've had enough

I think I'm running out of reasons not to let you go

I've faced the music it's over for the rythum and the rhyme

Baby this is a hook and last line and sinker

A moldy oldie on the radio you remember but it's over and done

It's the end of the dance let's take it out with a new song

A little thing called the blues in the key of love

No place left to go when the good is gone

One line away from a brand new song oh

[ guitar ]

Baby this is a hook...
