Lyrics

Tiny children on their own, they learn so fast How to make new friends, how to play their new games I remember a man he had shiny hair Always hanging around when you went away Little eight year old, she knows too many secrets Much too young to understand what it means I remember a woman with silver hair And the smell and the taste of the bed we shared And that's how I behaved Every time that you went away And now, though I'm older nothing's changed (playing the same games) And I knew every day Came a chance that you'd leave me So I found what I could to take your place Told me not to cry Said that I'd survive As he waved goodbye And I want to try Not to make you cry Want us to survive Never say goodbye But that's how I behave when you go away Because though I'm older nothing's changed (Playing the same games) And I know every day There's a chance that you'll leave me So I find what I can to take your place
