Givin' up thinkin' about you baby
I think it's time for me
To go on my way
Said I'm givin' up thinkin' about you baby
I think it's time for me
To go on my way
Baby you know I tried so hard
I think it's time for me
To ease your mind and please your heart
But all you ever wanna do to me
Is make me cry and leave
You said that you really loved me
And you wanted me to be your man
I'm doin' the best that I can
But you, never understand
And I'm givin' up thinkin' about you baby
I think it's time for me
To go on my own way
Said I'm givin' up thinkin' about you baby
I think it's time for me
To go on my own way
There's a cold stone in my heart
And it's getting colder
And there ain't nothin' you can say
Maybe I don't feel like dancing
Because I'm getting older
Or maybe you've gone away
That old love letter that you wrote
Is still laying on the shelf by the corner
Said we'd be together soon
And I'm still thinkin' bout the toll on my heart
And the space that's left for her
But I'm running out of room
And I'm givin' up thinkin' about you baby
I think it's time for me
To go on my own way
Said I'm givin' up thinkin' about you baby
I think it's time for me
To go on my own way
