Lines on my head from that one thing she said
She spoke of strangers that don't sleep two a bed
Kept on trying, buying time, not waiting on fate
I somehow got the feeling that I opened my eyes too late

I saw where you came from
Called out your name
But there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife, but I don't need that

Lines on my face, while I laugh lest I cry
Speed city dirt and gritty waving me goodbye
Now there's so many people, my family of friends
Trying so hard to make me smile until this heartache mends

I saw where you came from
Called out your name
But there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
I made you my wife, but I don't need that

Ice in her eyes, frozen tears would never be a surprise
Well, you can't erase a dream, you can only wake me up
Well, my mind is turning slower, never to accept defeat
Well, it don't matter, it don't matter, still got a house I got to heat

I saw where you came from
Called out your name
But there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
Made you my wife, but I don't need that

I saw where you came from
Called out your name
But there's no answer
We lived on your doorstep
Made you my wife, but I don't need that
