Don't look me in the eye
And tell me it's over
Do you want to take away my smile
That you've created

You think it's impossible to love me
I think you just don't give a damn
Killing me so softly with the touch of your hand

It hurts sometimes
It hurts so bad
When you leave me

I've been living with my roommate for about 30 days
All he does is sit on my couch and eats my frito lays
He does things to make me mad and then he lies to me
The lights are all on when he leaves but he don't pay the PG&E

I'm getting sick of this
I'm getting sick

Get the hell out
Get the hell out you dirty thing
Get the hell out of my fridgerator

I've been suffering with my roommate for about 30 days

He thinks he's perfect everything I want
And when I think about him I can't stop
He holds onto forever like a clock
He thinks he's perfect everything I want

I don't need that man but he needs me
And if I decided what I wanted
You it wouldn't be
Controlling me

You say you're the one who'll take my pain away
As if when you're around everything will be ok
Well I can't believe a word you say
Cause Mr. Right ain't right today

Let's sip this champagne and let the night unfold
And makes promises we'll be together when we get old
The worries of the world just fade away
Cause tonight it's just you and me

Take me to your room
So we can dance our secret dance
And we can annoy the neighbors
While we only use our hands
And make this already as it was
And you can love me, loveme
Just because

Whisper in my ear the sweet words of your love

Emptiness is gone but distraction is in your face
Can't find the time or the pencil to erase
The words that you wrote into my heart's mold
I need to find the place where I can grow old

Don't you love me
Don't you need me
Don't you love me
Yeah yeah

Tired of dependency even when happiness stays
I need you to hear my I love you's in all the thousand ways
So tonight I'll drink alone and do a toast to myself
Cause I am no longer me I am somebody else

There's a monster in the other room
He hears her sing
He's thinking about taking her heart and leaving
She notices him, runs and slams the door
Thinking she's never seen a monster like that before

He plays his game and you fall
And because you're a woman
You think you know it all
He makes his move
He says his line
And you fall for him another time

You blame yourself for the pain
You think it's your fault when he hits you again

Well you can get used to someone being gone
But you've been gone for days
As long as I got my Tom Petty music
I'll be okay, I'll be okay

Just don't tell me when you'll be coming home
Don't tell me when you'll be coming home
Cause I don't want to know how long I'll be alone

Well I can use my imagination
Close my eyes and I can see your face
Sometimes I can feel you right beside me
Open my eyes and it goes away
But I'll be okay, yes, I'll be okay

On a long empty highway I am all alone
I'm so scared but I'm never going home
You sing to me sweetly in my memory
But good-bye to that cause the world ain't free

Thought I saw happiness but it was just a ghost
You left me hanging when I needed you the most

Oh baby, baby, baby
I don't see you anymore
Oh baby, baby, baby
Quiet the music, love it
and then you cry
Quiet the music, love it
and then you die

You can drown out a bird's song
Level a mountain and build all year long
Cut down every tree you see
And extinct the birds and the bees

And I'll Sail Away
I'll Sail Away

The ocean is the only thing left that's free
Cause no one can govern the sea
I'm floating away on the next wave
While you live your life by the roads that you pave

And I'll Sail Away
I'll Sail Away

I'll Sail Away
I'll Sail Away

Sometimes I get so lost and it's ok
Cause everywhere I go I'm feeling you
The signs, they all seem to point the wrong way
Cause my eyes only point to you
 
And when our hearts blend together like that
To create a color that just fits
So perfectly just like this
We'll go to the place where we trule live
Beyond the green running naked
In a dance that lasts all night
 
Sometimes I get so lost and it's ok
Cause everywhere I go I'm feeling you
