If you feel you have the time
Come and spend a little bit of it here on my mind
I'll help you if I can
I'll be your woman, baby I'll be your man
But don't you do what you always do
And close the door on me
There are riches here and they won't last forever

Hide yourself away
And make light of the situation
It's gotta be two way
Or it's never gonna work
Don't do what you say you will
In spite of the conversation
It's got to be today
Or it's never gonna work

The story has no ending
Until you decide you can seize your day
Darkness comes descending
With the booze and a cigarette lighting your way
Don't you do what you always do and ask for company
I've been there myself and I'm not gonna follow

Hide yourself away
And make light of the situation
It's gotta be two way
Or it's never gonna work
Don't do what you say you will
In spite of the conversation
It's got to be today
Or it's never gonna work
Or it's never gonna work

Don't go silent
Don't go dark
Realize you can come around to it
In a natural arc
Don't go silent
Don't go dark
Don't fade away
Don't fade away

Hide yourself away
And make light of the situation
It's gotta be two way
Or it's never gonna, never gonna, never gonna work

No it's never gonna work

Hide yourself away
And make light of the situation
It's gotta be two way
Or it's never gonna work
Don't do what you say you will
In spite of the conversation
It's got to be today
Or it's never gonna work

Oh oh it's never gonna work
No it's never gonna work
