I'm giving you my heart and my soul

I'm giving you more than you'll ever know

I'm giving you just about everything I can

Can't you see that I'm just only one man

I took you out to the picture show

Then I took you walkin' outdoors

I walked you up and down the block

And I warned you baby this has got to stop

This has got to stop, you're way over the top

Pack my things and walk, we can't even talk

This has got to stop, I just had enough

I'm gonna call your bluff, walk you one more lap

And I watched you watching me as I watched you walk away from me

And I went off to that far country

I took a plane out to that Newfoundland

And you said to me that you didn't understand

This has got to stop, you're way over the top

I'm gonna pack my things and walk, we don't even talk

This has got to stop, baby I just had enough

I'm gonna call your bluff, walk me one more lap

Well I came back home and I burnt our house down

I watched it crumble to the ground

Oh it caved in like a piece of balsa wood

I turned to you and said baby, this is just no good

And I worked and I tried to build it all back up again

Today you told me that you had really changed

Then you knocked down all my castles in the sand

Then I said baby, I know now just where we stand

This has got to stop, you're way over the top

Pack my bags and walk, we don't even talk

This has got to stop, I've just had enough

I'm gonna call your bluff, this has got to stop

This has got to stop

Stop, stop I've had enough

I'm gonna call your bluff

Stop, stop, stop

This has got to stop
