when i walked you to the door i was feeling mighty fine
i was thinking "hey i've got love to ease my mind"
then i got to the car and i was staring at your scars
thinking "hey, this ain't no way to spend my time"

now i want a true love affair
not this touch-and-go in the air
you know i don't know if i'm coming or i'm down
i don't want a love touch and go
i want a feeling i only know
or else you can get me out of this town

when i saw you smile i knew one look into your eyes
and i was thinking "hey, are you in love again"
then i heard you laugh honey you were laughing at the past
i was thinking "this ain't no way to treat a friend"

you were laughing at the past
honey you were smiling through your glass
watching cars drive away in your mind
you were hoping i would leave
honey i was dreaming i could stay
and this ain't no way to spend my time
this ain't no way to treat a friend
this ain't no way to see me
i'm looking for the end
this ain't no way to treat a friend

now i want words i want touch
maybe that's a bit too much
for one so far removed
from what you used to claim
well if you be cruel, i'll still be kind
you know i've got it in my mind
i'm in love with you
i ain't gonna play your games
if you want my advice
don't say it's wrong if it feels right
don't push me down just to see me crawl
i'll be crawling on the floor
then i'll be reaching for the door
i'll be crawling right out of your eyes
honey i'll be walking right out of your eyes
