Keep on telling you
Keep trying to get through
that big old head
Seems to be wasted breath
Oh what can I say
I'm not in love with you
Let it go let it go
and I'll be kind to you
I tried the simple things
Didn't return your calls
I was busy every day
Never any time at all
But you needed a bigger clue
I got dumb 'cause I didn't want to hurt you
But you keep pushing, keep pushing me away
(chorus)
You keep on hounding me
Keep on finding me
You keep on trying me, I can't get away
You keep on hounding me
Keep on finding me
You keep on trying me, I can't get away

Tried to be your friend
Wasn't hard to offend
But I love being with you
Suppose that's why you got confused
Until I made it clear
I was never to change my mind
You've become so precious dear
But you've got to leave this behind
One day I hope you find
Someone who loves you too
So you'll let me be
And you'll forget you've ever had
A bruised and broken heart
Can't forgive and can't forget
Driving us both staring mad
Well you're driving me away

(chorus)

Keep trying to get closer
Keep trying to get a hold of
Keep on trying, you're driving me away
Keep trying to get closer
Keep trying to get a hold of
Keep on trying, you're driving me away
Oh mm mm You're driving me away

(chorus)

Keep trying to get closer
Keep trying to get a hold of
You're driving, driving me away
Keep trying to get closer
Keep trying to get a hold of
Oh, you're driving me away
Driving me away
Oh, you're driving me away
