Oceans apart day after day And I slowly go insane I hear your voice on the line But it doesn't stop the pain If I see you next to never How can we say forever Wherever you go Whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you I took for granted, all the times That I thought would last somehow I hear the laughter, I taste the tears But I can't get near you now Oh, can't you see it baby You've got me going crazy Wherever you go Whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever it takes Or how my heart breaks I will be right here waiting for you

She's got me running, trying to find her Like a diesel on tracks behind her Though I know from me she wants to escape Fool I am, I won't accept my fate So I'm running and I'm so tired Cant stop now cause she's got such a headstart Anyday I know I am stepping to find Another man holding what was mine They say love can be so blind And it can almost drive you out of your mind Look at me an educated fool Loving this woman made me bloat my cool So I'm running, trying to find her Like a diesel on tracks behind her Anyday I know I am stepping to find Another man holding what once was mine Still running, trying to get somewhere Aaaaaaaah! Still running momma, Still runing baby Still trying to get it together, somehow I know Let me tell you one more time They say love can be so blind And it can almost drive you out of your mind Look at me an educated fool Loving this woman made me bloat my cool So I'm running, running, running, running, running, running...

Cold, cold eyes upon me they stare People all around me and they're all in fear They don't seem to want me but they won't admit I must be some kind of creature up here having fits From my party house, I'm afraid to come outside Although I'm filled with love I'm afraid they'll hurt my pride So I play the part I feel they want of me And I pull the shades so I won't see them seein' me Havin' hard times in this crazy town Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found From my party house I feel like meetin' others Familiar faces, creed and race, a brother But to my surprise I find a man corrupt Although he be my brother, he wants to hold me up Havin' hard times in this crazy town Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found So many hard times... Sleepin' on motel floors Knockin' on my brother's door Eatin' Spam and Oreos and drinkin' Thunderbird baby In this crazy town Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found Havin' hard times, in this crazy town Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found I'm sick and tired I'm sick and tired of payin' dues baby And I'm sick and tired of havin' so many hard, hard times baby And from my party house, from my party house
