I need your arms around me, I need to feel your touch. I need your understanding, I need your love so much. You tell me that you love me so, You tell me that you care. But when I need you, baby, You′re never there.
On the phone long, long distance. Always through such strong resistance, First you say you′re too busy, I wonder if you even miss me.
Never there You′re never there You′re never, ever, ever, ever there.
[2x:] A golden bird that flies away, A candle′s fickle flame To think I held you yesterday, Your love was just a game.
You tell me that you love me so, You tell me that you care. But when I need you, baby...
Take the time to get to know me If you want me why can′t you just show me. We′re always on this roller coaster, If you want me why can′t you get closer?
Never there You′re never there You′re never ever, ever, ever there.
You keep pushing me away In spite of what you say I found out yesterday That I′ve been wasting all my time Trying to make you smile Trying to make this seem worth... While you′ve been pushing me around In spite of what I do Trying to make things good for... You take your economy car and your suitcase Take your psycho little dogs Take it all away
You′ve been racing through my mind You′re picking up in speed You′re driving recklessly It′s like a car crash happening on my street
Broken bodies at my feet And sirens on the way They′re too late ′Cause nobody′s going to save us We′re a rubbernecker′s dream We′re burning gasoline Go take your economy car and your suitcase Take your psycho little dogs Take it all away And go Go ahead and destroy this Better come with an army Are you feeling feeling okay baby? Na-na-na-na-na-na Take your economy car and your suitcase Take your psycho little dogs Take it all away
To me, coming from you, Friend is a four letter word, End is the only part of the word That I heard, Call me morbid or absurd, But to me, coming from you, Friend is a four letter word [x2]
When I go fishing for the words I am wishing you would say to me, I′m really only praying That the words you′ll soon be saying Might betray the way you feel about me
But to me, coming from you, Friend is a four letter word
