“As I lay here tonight I keep thinking
How long ago for you I was crazy
And this night moves right along my mind and much my situation,
And I'm feeling mighty cold and unhappy.
And the songs I hear, they don't seem like they're changing
And my time spent leaving far exceeds the times that I stayed
And this way of speaking doesn't bring me comfort anymore
It's like someone took the flame right out of me.”
