"Never Works Out"
I thought I heard in your voice
The sound and heart of the boy I used to know
But then the new voice grabbed that special moment
And made it all end wrong and go
I know I shouldn't feel this way for you,
My friends are telling me that you're being a jerk
And I want to, but I can't just dismiss it like that
Even though I know I'm just going to be hurt
I'm wishing one day
It'll all turn out my way
That you'll come around,
Pick me up off the cold, cold ground
But for now I know-
When I'm alone and scared-
You won't be there
When I'm crying and feeling down-
You won't be around
And I ask myself why
Why do I let me get like this?
I've been through this
And it never works out
I thought I saw in your eyes
The mischievous glint of the you I used to know
But then the new look you've acquired just recently
Came and clouded up that memory
I'm wishing one day
It'll all turn out my way
That you'll come around,
Pick me up off the cold, cold ground
But for now I know-
When I'm alone and scared-
You won't be there
When I'm crying and feeling down-
You won't be around
And I ask myself why
Why do I let me get like this?
I've been through this
And it never works out
I thought I saw in your face
The fun-loving grin of a you I used to know
But then realization came along and told you
Who you were talking to
When I'm alone and scared-
You won't be there
When I'm crying and feeling down-
You won't be around
And I ask myself why
Why do I let me get like this
I've been through this
And it never works out
When I'm alone and scared...
When I'm crying and feeling down...
Oh I ask myself why
Why do I let me get like this?
I've been through this...
And it never works out...
