Between morning and evening working and sleeping And feeling confused She got stuck on the highway in the 5:00 traffic Missed the 6:00 news She said I just saw him out there with some girl from somewhere They were feeling just fine Was he too tired for love like he said he was Or just biding time She said if leavin' was easy I'd be gone Doing what he's done all along Cause tonight I need to be loved more than anything else And if it'd been easy I wouldn't be gone I'd be better off to be on my own Than living for someone who only lives for themselves She's got a front row seat with cable TV For her life's the screen When she oughta be dancing instead of romancing Yesterday's dream She took to the limit all that was in it But watching it end And remember tonight of some old flame She'd love to get wound up again She said if leavin' was easy I'd be gone Doing what he's done all along Cause tonight I need to be loved more than anything else And if it'd been easy I wouldn't be gone I'd be better off to be on my own Than living for someone who only lives for themselves
