The Last Worthless Evening
I know you broke up with him and your heart's still on the shelf
It's been over two years for me and I'm still not quite myself
You can't be with someone new and you can't go back to him
You're beginning to realize that it's sink or swim
It's been over two years for me and I'm still not quite myself
You can't be with someone new and you can't go back to him
You're beginning to realize that it's sink or swim
I see you around sometimes and my heart just melts
You're lookin' like if you had your wish you'd be somewhere else
And it just breaks my heart to see you here this way
Someday I'll get the nerve to walk up to you and say
You're lookin' like if you had your wish you'd be somewhere else
And it just breaks my heart to see you here this way
Someday I'll get the nerve to walk up to you and say
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
'Cause I'll be there when your broken heart is on the mend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
'Cause I'll be there when your broken heart is on the mend
Every night it's the same old crowd in smoky rooms
You catch a faint glimpse of love sometimes but it never blooms
I've been around this block a time or two and I've made some big mistakes
But girl I promise you, I promise you
You catch a faint glimpse of love sometimes but it never blooms
I've been around this block a time or two and I've made some big mistakes
But girl I promise you, I promise you
That this is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
'Cause it won't be long 'till your little heart is on the mend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
'Cause it won't be long 'till your little heart is on the mend
Time, time, ticking, ticking (ticking away)
Time, time, ticking, ticking, ticking
Time, time, ticking, ticking (ticking away)
Time, time, ticking, ticking, ticking
Time, time, ticking, ticking, ticking
Time, time, ticking, ticking (ticking away)
Time, time, ticking, ticking, ticking
People inside their houses with the shades pulled down
God knows, we could use some romance in this sleepy bedroom town
I know you're still afraid to rush into anything
But there're just so many summers and just so many springs
God knows, we could use some romance in this sleepy bedroom town
I know you're still afraid to rush into anything
But there're just so many summers and just so many springs
And this is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend, baby
'Cause I'll be there when your broken heart is on the mend
Just gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend, baby
'Cause I'll be there when your broken heart is on the mend
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
'Cause it won't be long 'til your little heart is on the mend
Just gimme a chance, gimme a chance to show you how to love again
This is the last worthless evening that you'll have to spend
'Cause it won't be long 'til your little heart is on the mend
