[Verse 1] You never could be on time and I never was much of a lover and I never could stand to lose an Argument at a party I never could let you win and I never could let things go and You never could suffer it when I Didn't meet you halfway [Chorus] So go it alone Suffer on, just a little bit longer Need a little more time to work it out So go on ahead Suffer on, just a little bit longer Need a little more time to let it go [Verse 2] You never were stern enough and I always was much too uptight You never could understand why I Never stopped to smell the roses I never could hold my tongue and You never could hold your liquor and We never could seem to work the Details out together [Chorus] So go it alone Suffer on, just a little bit longer Need a little more time to work it out So go on ahead Suffer on, just a little bit longer Need a little more time to let it go [Verse 3] I never could stay in Ohio and You never could leave your job and We never could cut the distance Out of our relationship You never could express yourself and I never would hear you out and We never would see things eye to eye On issues of importance [Chorus] So go it alone Suffer on, just a little bit longer Need a little more time to work it out So go on ahead Suffer on, just a little bit longer Need a little more time to let it go
