Your ex-girlfriend told me you were having a bad time   Day-to-day life shouldn't be what it's all about   Day-to-day life is something we all know too much about   I guess you got no one to take care of you     Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying   Hey I didn't know things were going so bad for you   Maybe you're just trying to get her to come back to you   Or work your way out of the cynical attitudes   that protect you   Bad habits make our decisions for us   You should try remember   all you're holding Is a handful of dust     It's not even closing time   And already stars are falling out of the sky   You're all lit up, you gotta do something   I'll help you try     Your ex-girlfriend told me you spent all yesterday crying   Now do you believe the stories   when you're life's not buying   I guess you got no one to take care of you
