I think I know you
That's what she used to say
So I got used to
Being compromised, being side-lined, pretending I don't mind
That's what she liked to say
You should come over
That's how she used to phrase
And I bent every time
Tears stain like cheap-wine
That's how she liked to play
If it started like this I would have run a thousand miles
It never starts like this
And oh, my body is tired
My heart breaks down like an old truck engine
Throw me a new line
I think I know you
That's what he used to say
So I got used to
Being compromised, being side-lined, pretending I don't mind
That's what he liked to say
If it started like this I would have run a thousand miles
It never starts like this
And oh, my body is tired
My heart breaks down like an old truck engine
Throw me a new line
And so, you said you'd retired
There's a knock on your door at three in the morning
Oh, these lines
Are wasted on you
I think I know you
And oh, my body is tired
My heart breaks down like an old truck engine
Throw me a new line
And so, you said you'd retired
There's a knock on your door at three in the morning
Oh, these lines
Are wasted on you
I think I know you
That's what we used to say
