Sweet love, oh, it comes and it goes
Last love found a new guy to hold
Hurts more 'cause I'm getting real lonely
And bored while I wait for the train
Boredom all the time, in a haze
Is it me or is the world turning slowly?

All of my days play out this way
All of my songs are sounding the same
And the flowers I gave him went stale
If someone asks, "It's all going well"

Sweet love left four months ago
New love's what I'm looking for
Someone who can soundtrack this silence
Keep an eye out for a muse on the train
He'll paint my life a new shade
Give me back my teenage excitement

When all of my days play out this way
All of my songs are sounding the same
And the flowers I gave him went stale
If someone asks, "It's all going well"

It's always the same
Love has gone away
If someone asks, "It's all going well"

Sweet love said the spark fizzled out
Tough love, yeah, his words hang around
Hurts more, 'cause I'm getting real lonely
Still bored while I wait for the train
Same one that I catch every day
Is it me or is the world turning slowly?
