The sunlight hits me and I shiver   I rub the sleep out of my eyes    I pull the mail box open    And hope to find a sweet surprise       I stumble back into the kitchen    I dump out last night's coffee grinds    I think the whole thing over    It's like a movie in my mind       Well they tell me    I'm gonna have to carry on without her    But I'm afraid that ain't the way I got it planned    I'm gonna take a walk today    I'll go the old familiar way    I'll walk up to her and I'll say,    "I've come to win you back Suzanne."       The beauty of this life is changing    When pressed against the cold, hard facts    The fact is I got restless    And you say you ain't coming back       So hello friendly next door neighbor    Hello bird up on the wire    The thought of her surrender    Spreads through me like a forest fire       Well they tell me...       How could you believe that you could get away from me so easy    What kind of man would let the woman of his dreams just go away    You said I'd never change before but when I knock upon your door    You'll see babe, the change in me babe    I'm on my knees babe    Looking at you from across the way       See her diamond earrings sparkle    Hear the pounding in my chest    I wish I had a dollar    For every one of my regrets       In the distance he's approaching    The ghost of who I might have been    As I walk home alone my    Memory's my only friend       Well they tell me....
