Verse:
You're awfully quiet are you sure there's nothing wrong?
If you can't talk now, this can wait 'til later on
You take on so much I think you spread yourself to thin
When you put the pen down, could you try to pencil me in?
Chorus:
It's alright, I'm fine
Just keep pushing me aside
Your hands are full and me, my hands are tied
Just do your thing and I'll practice smiling
Verse:
Just tell me how long I should keep waiting up for you?
I know you're tired but you've got some catching up to do
So what did you expect? A ticker tape parade?
I'll stand behind you 'cause I don't want to get in the way
Chorus:
It's alright, I'm fine
Just keep pushing me aside
Your hands are full and me, my hands are tied
Just do your thing and I'll practice smiling
Bridge:
Nowadays it's always come and go
The moment you come home
You're leaving me behind again
Grown impatient with saving face and so
I'll say what's on my mind
Can I have you for one night?
Breakdown:
It's alright, I'm fine
Just keep pushing me aside
Your hands are full and me, my hands are tied
It's alright, I'm fine
This happens all the time
Just do your thing and I
I'll practice smiling
