Oh the times I've said I'm leaving
And the times I've said I'm through
You can count upon one hand
But that's enough, it's long overdue
And the times I've sat and worried 'til my face was nearly blue
You can count upon one hand
So why didn't I, didn't I, didn't I go?
Cos you wouldn't, no you wouldn't, no you wouldn't let me know
Why didn't I, didn't I, didn't I say?
Cos you wouldn't, no you wouldn't listen anyway
So you're coming up towards me
With the shine in your hair
I can see that you've been running
But I don't know exactly where
You say your watch's working it reminds you of my face
You can count upon one hand
So why didn't I, didn't I, didn't I go?
Cos you wouldn't, no you wouldn't, no you wouldn't let me know
Why didn't I, didn't I, didn't I guess?
You wouldn't, no you wouldn't, no you wouldn't rest
I'm the same as anyone else
I don't wanna be left on the shelf
I'm gonna love you when I can
Cos I don't want to be an also-ran
