somebody else picks up the phone at your house
somebody new again
somebody young enough to make you feel young too
but is he old enough to care?

you're a queen on a cloud of teardrops
i suffered at your feet

i do fine without your love
but fine would be better
if you were here
i'm alright, i hold my own
i'd hold you forever
if you were here

somebody else climbs up the stairs to your room
a place that i know so well
i bet you took him down to the coast
of our dreams
i bet you gave him all in that hotel

i do fine without your love
but fine would be better
if you were here
i'm alright, i hold my own
i'd hold you forever
if you were here

little did i know that it would end this way
little did i care about the price i'd pay
little did i suffer up until today

i do fine without your love
i'm alright without your love
i do fine without your love
but fine would be better
if you were here
it would be better
if you were here
it would be better
if you were here
