Was it something in the air, or was it all the cheap red wine That set the wolves to howling in my troubled head tonight Or has nothing changed, after all this wasted time? I still can't seem to stop you running riot in my mind How slow the old love fades Feels like nothing's getting better and it's never gonna change So call me if you get the chance, hope I didn't wake you up But darling, I could use a friend, I just wanna talk God I hate this song and dance, I don't wanna mess you up Love is such an ugly thing, I just wanna talk Well it don't seem all that long now since those fateful summer nights When all our friends were smiling in that garden filled with light And you could hear me say "I miss the simpler times" As if I'd ever had it any better my whole life But quickly go the days And the harder that I hold on, the faster you slip away So call me if you get the chance, hope I didn't wake you up But darling, I could use a friend, I just wanna talk God I hate this song and dance, I don't wanna mess you up Love is such an ugly thing, I just wanna talk Forever seems an awfully long time But that's how long I'll be here waiting for the dream to die So call me if you get the chance, hope I didn't wake you up But darling, I could use a friend, I just wanna talk God I hate this song and dance, how did we get so messed up? Love is such an ugly thing, I just wanna talk to you You don't owe me anything, I just want to talk
