The sunlight hits me and I shiver I rub the sleep out of my eyes I pull the mail box open And hope to find a sweet surprise I stumble back into the kitchen I dump out last night's coffee grinds I think the whole thing over It's like a movie in my mind Well they tell me I'm gonna have to carry on without her But I'm afraid that ain't the way I got it planned I'm gonna take a walk today I'll go the old familiar way I'll walk up to her and I'll say, "I've come to win you back Suzanne." The beauty of this life is changing When pressed against the cold, hard facts The fact is I got restless And you say you ain't coming back So hello friendly next door neighbor Hello bird up on the wire The thought of her surrender
Spreads through me like a forest fire Well they tell me... How could you believe that you could get away from me so easy What kind of man would let the woman of his dreams just go away You said I'd never change before but when I knock upon your door You'll see babe, the change in me babe I'm on my knees babe Looking at you from across the way See her diamond earrings sparkle Hear the pounding in my chest I wish I had a dollar For every one of my regrets In the distance he's approaching The ghost of who I might have been As I walk home alone my Memory's my only friend Well they tell me....
