No more negotiations dear
I'm runnin' out of patience here
Whisper congratulations in my ear
Well it clear, that we got nothin' much left to say

Monuments and maps
The sky-lines and the tourist traps
Would all do well if they collapsed
And sent you runnin' back here to me

Well who said absence makes the heart grow fonder
In all the pictures that you send me now
Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder

Cars break down and people break down and other things break down too
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
And now I think I'm breaking down, on you

Could you be more specific dear
Tell me what is so terrific here
Don't be to scientific, but make it clear and never fear
I'll be scratchin' it down my nails in clay, hey

Who said absence makes the heart grow fonder
In all the pictures that you send me now
Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder

Cars break down and people break down and other things break down too
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
And now I think I'm breaking down, on you
Yeah
Have anther sedative
It even gets so repetitive
And don't give a damn to help me feel ok
And all the breath will be here for me
And that won't be very nice
So baby will you help me
Through the day, yeah yeah

Yeah well who said absence makes the heart grow fonder
In all the pictures that you send me now
Your hair seems to get just a little bit blonder

Cars break down and people break down and other things break down too
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
And now I think I'm breaking down, on you
Cars break down and people break down and other things break down too
I felt somethin' slip when you left on your trip
And now I think I'm breaking down, on you
Yeah yeah
