WHY SAY YOU'RE MINE WHEN YOU'RE NEVER EVER THERE

AND WHY THE ALIBI WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU DON'T CARE

SO WHY WASTE THE TIME AND PLAY THIS GAME THAT ISN'T FAIR

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



YOU MUST BE UNDERCOVER ALWAYS HIDING WHAT YOU DO

WHEN I SAY YOUR NAME IT DOESN'T REALLY SOUND LIKE YOU

THE STORIES THAT YOU TELL ME NEVER END THE SAME WAY TWICE

AND WHEN YOU SAY YOU LOVE ME OH YOUR LOVE FEELS COLD AS ICE



SO IF I SEEM TO BE A MILLION MILES AWAY

THEN PLEASE JUST ANSWER ME WHY DO YOU ACT THIS WAY

CAUSE IF YOUR HEART ISN'T SOMETHING I CAN OWN

THEN DO US BOTH A FAVOR AND LEAVE ME ALONE



WHY SAY YOU'RE MINE WHEN YOU'RE NEVER EVER THERE

AND WHY THE ALIBI WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU DON'T CARE

SO WHY WASTE THE TIME AND PLAY THIS GAME THAT ISN'T FAIR

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



EVERYDAY I WONDER AS YOU COME BACK THROUGH THE DOOR

WHO ARE YOU THIS TIME AND CAN I TAKE THIS ANYMORE

IT USED TO BE SO DIFFERENT I DON'T KNOW WHAT MADE YOU CHANGE

I WAS ALWAYS STABLE NOW YOU GOT ME ACTING STRANGE



WHY SAY YOU'RE MINE WHEN YOU'RE NEVER EVER THERE

AND WHY THE ALIBI WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU DON'T CARE

SO WHY WASTE THE TIME AND PLAY THIS GAME THAT ISN'T FAIR

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



WHY SAY YOU'RE MINE WHEN YOU'RE NEVER EVER THERE

AND WHY THE ALIBI WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU DON'T CARE

SO WHY WASTE THE TIME AND PLAY THIS GAME THAT ISN'T FAIR

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



ALL AROUND A CLOUD SURROUNDS YOU

HIDING YOUR REALITY

UP IS DOWN AND DOWN'S ABOUT YOU

DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



YOU LEAVE A BAD IMPRESSION

PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION

DON'T ACT LIKE I'M MISTAKEN

I KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN FAKIN'

HOW COULD YOU DO THE THINGS YOU DO

TO MAKE ME SAY



WHY SAY YOU'RE MINE WHEN YOU'RE NEVER EVER THERE

AND WHY THE ALIBI WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU DON'T CARE

SO WHY WASTE THE TIME AND PLAY THIS GAME THAT ISN'T FAIR

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



ALL AROUND A CLOUD SURROUNDS YOU

HIDING YOUR REALITY

UP IS DOWN AND DOWN'S ABOUT YOU

DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME

WHY SAY YOU'RE MINE WHEN YOU'RE NEVER EVER THERE

AND WHY THE ALIBI WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU DON'T CARE

SO WHY WASTE THE TIME AND PLAY THIS GAME THAT ISN'T FAIR

WHY DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME



ALL AROUND A CLOUD SURROUNDS YOU

HIDING YOUR REALITY

UP IS DOWN AND DOWN'S ABOUT YOU

DON'T YOU JUST STAY AWAY FROM ME
