Though it's me that's on fire not this cigarette   And what do I care if she leaves me alone   If I need somebody I'll pick up the phone   I'll put on my good face, clean up the flat   I'm starting all over, good bye to all that   Put on some music and pour out a drink   I'll go back to bed and I'll try not to think      Someone to talk to      She was a person I just couldn't see   And I tried to make her what she couldn't be   I tried and I tried, but of course in the end   I drove her crazy and right 'round the bend   Now it's too much to just sit here and cry   I can't be seen with a tear in my eye   Why am I standing right next to the phone   When I kept on saying I must be alone      Someone to talk to      I love you, why didn't I say that before   I guess that it's safe now, she's walked through the door   It's hard when you know that you've got to go on   Feeling so weak and pretending your strong   I didn't see her, I only felt me   And one day I'll learn just which part of me bleeds   Now that she's gone I know she was great   But I fucked it up and now it's too late      Someone to talk to......
