[Verse 1] Never found out why you left him But this answer begs a question Too blind to see tomorrow Too broke to beg or borrow Young and stupid (left wide open) Hearts are wasted (lives are broken) [Verse 2] One more point of contention I need some intervention Approaching failing tensions Betray my short attention Span the distance (bridge the border) Beg forgiveness ('round the corner) [Chorus] Every time I look for you the sun goes down And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground I left another message, you are never around But every time I look for you the sun goes down once more Will the last one out please shut the door [Verse 3] More time apart will give you A few more months to argue Is this too much to live through It always seems too far to drive The point home (send more letters) Pray tomorrow (ends up better) [Chorus] Every time I look for you the sun goes down And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground I left another message, you are never around But every time I look for you the sun goes down once more Will the last one out, please shut the door [Bridge] I never did do anything that she asked I never let what happened stay in the past I never did quite understand what she meant In spite of everything, in spite of everything [Chorus] Every time I look for you the sun goes down And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground I left another message, you are never around But every time I look for you the sun goes down once more Will the last one out, please shut the door Every time I look for you the sun goes down And I stumble when this whole thing runs aground I left another message, you are never around But every time I look for you the sun goes down once more Will the last one out, please shut the door
