I don't know why I cannot reach you   I've tried and tried and still   Every time it kills me   I don't know why I cannot reach you   You've written on the back of your motorcycle jacket      Do unto others as the highway does to you   Tell me what that means   Are you talking about freedom   Are you talking about kindness   Or just trying to make me lonely   Make me lonely      I don't know why I still don't know you   After all this time together   I thought I'd know you better   I don't know why I still don't know you   You write me letters but they don't help at all      I do wish you'd tell me why you do what you do   But you just tell me what you see   Are you trying to find a home somewhere   Trying to say that you don't care   Or just trying to make me lonely   Make me lonely      I don't know why I cannot have you   You say you're stuck, you can't get back   With your van up on a jack   I remind you about the spare in back   You say yeah, but two tires are flat   I know I cannot have you      So do unto others as the highway does to you   Come one, set me free   I'm not talking about tomorrow   I'm not talking anymore   I'm just tired of waking up lonely   Waking up lonely   Waking up lonely
