You took a step forth

I'm left one step back

You still got what I want

but she has what I lack



I was thinking if you ever change your mind

then here I come, hoping you'll catch me

my dignity won't take me far as long as you are



Gone, gone, gone, gone

no, I'll just keep on falling

down, down, down, down



I followed you both

when you didn't see

she fits in your arms

like they used to fit me



I was thinking if you ever want me back

then here I stand, hoping you'll take me

my dignity won't take me far as long as you are



Gone, gone, gone, gone

no, I'll just keep on waiting

alone, alone, alone, alone



I'm desperate for love

and I don't care what you think of me now

I want you, yeah I do

So please hear my call

'cause my voice is sore, and I've said this before



If you ever, ever, ever change your mind

then here I am, and you might still love me

it's hard to figure out as long as you are out there



Gone, gone, gone, gone

where you don't belong

Come home, home, home, home, home

and I will make you want me

on and on and on and on



You still got what I want

but she has what I lack

I could write a song

but I couldn't change that
