Call me crazy if you've got it in you
but these people don't seem to mind
sweet vermouth now you're telling me the truth
a little stubbornness will work out fine
a bottom feeder at the end of my rope
but i'm wondering where this rope began
gonna circle around what i couldn't help bring down
it's just supply with demand
nothing looks the same
even when there's been no change
say that something's gonna give
and it's all giving out on you

CHORUS
when it's all over now
it's all over now
it's no longer fun and it's all been overdone
so it's all over now

a large pickup truck with a little cargo towed
gets from baker's to the laundromat
these daily fights all start to sound alike
i guess i'm gonna have to live with that
short changed
now it's getting even harder to identify the repetition
short changed
now it's getting even harder to identify the repetition
will i simply peel away
feels more likely everyday
say that something's gonna give
and it's all giving out on you

CHORUS

and if you came here to tell me that you're sorry
for the pain you couldn't cause
then save your breath and use it
just to regain what you have lost and look at the cost

And now i'm trying to decide if i feel dirty at all
cause it gets hard to tell
it's never just black and white she's got a mind of her own
and she uses it well
so she invites me over outside villanova
she's got some pull-out sofa that we won't hardly need
she is only drinking soda revving up that motor
got places we could go to but i still won't believe
that she's only gifted
when i'm standing by her side
she goes unassisted
and i start to relax as i cut her some slack

CHORUS
so get up i gotta go to work
facing all these people who now know i'm a jerk
and it's a set-up i gotta change my clothes
concealing all this evidence before everybody knows
what i've done and what i'm gonna do …again

and in the middle of the night i have a breakdown of sorts
with regret creeping in
she's gonna put up a fight and she will get her way
cause she loves sleeping in
so i need someone to side with when she begins confiding
and i cannot provide it cause i'm endlessly cold
she says she's so excited to play some groom and bride
with me but i'm undecided so I need to be told
that she's only sinking
when i'm sleeping by her side
with a change of thinking
i could pull us away even just for a day

chorus

she grows impatient to change my tune
she's geting older and legal soon
and i wasn't ready to start out and go upsetting
some girl that i'd be forgetting
by the time the cops came by that afternoon
and i try to decide as she pulls me aside

chorus

I can’t write my words
When I don’t have you
I can’t sing my song
When my strings won’t tune
You won’t believe me
You won’t believe me crying
I can’t walk my path
When I can’t say motivated
I can’t play my part
When it gets too complicated
You won’t believe me
You won’t believe me
So you’ll never see me

CHORUS
Give me a reason and I wont breakdown
And if that’s all that you’ve got
You’d better not get caught
I’ve got more in store

I can’t keep my beat
When I don’t have you
I can’t shake my sins
When you don’t come through
How could you leave me
Just when you see me crying
And I can’t feel low down
When I don’t have legs to stand on
I can’t feel low down
When I there ain’t no ground to land on
How could you leave me
How could you leave me
Now you’ll never see me

CHORUS

Don’t look at me and act like you’re just blind
Let’s work it out before you change my mind

CHORUS

So you may be thinking that you wanted more
You may be thinking that you don't know what's in store
I'm gonna be here, but not for too long
So don't hold back

I don't do an encore
So if you're holding back energy give it to me now
I didn't mean that literally
I meant like, over the course of the show
Don't pretend that when I leave stage then you're gonna flip out

'Cause it just won't happen
Said it just won't happen
You're representing Chicago
The name will be on the CD
Do you really want people hearing Chicago and thinking, "they kind of lack energy"

So if you're holding back
Don't hold back anymore
If you're holding back
Don't hold back..

We went out Thursday night without the pressures of weekends
Now I find myself consumed with all the lovely things we said
Could you really be as busy as you had claimed
Or have you been sounding out my last name
So I will keep hoping and holding out patience for you

Did you get my message
I’m quite sure you never called back
Perhaps I’m just paranoid
I need to cut her some slack
Seems like everyone’s better at playing it cool
And I’ve always been bad at obeying these rules
But as far as ladies go you come and go as you please

Do I really wanna know if I even have a choice
I’ve been plastered to the phone
And I just wait on your voice
Call me back
Call me back
Call me back
Even if it’s just, even if it’s just to say goodbye

I’ve been obsessing in ways that I usually do
And mostly I got obsessed with whether you got obsessed too
Was I simply imagining the chemistry there
Was it bad conversation I wasn’t aware
But I will keep hoping and holding out patience for you

Do I really wanna know if I even have a chance
I’ve been plastered to the phone
And I still wait on your romance
Call me back
Call me back
Call me back
Even if it’s just, even if it’s just to say goodbye

So it’s only been five days
But that seems like so long to be alone
I’ve been wondering what I’d say
But you won’t even take time
To sit down and pick up the phone

Call me back
I want you to call me back
Call me back
Even if it’s just, even if it’s just to say goodbye

Call me back
Call me back
I want you to call me back
Even if it’s just, even if its just to say goodbye

Call me back
I want you to call me back
I gotta, gotta, gotta call me back
Even if it’s just, even if its just to say goodbye

He's been waiting around for the weekend
figuring which club to sneak in
fancy drinks and fifty dollar cover charge
lately it's been a big hassle
heineken and new castle
to make sure he's fitting in and living large
disregard the lies that he will tell and what he's probably like
cause it's not hard his charm is gonna get him through the night

if he wants to rock he rocks
if he wants to roll he rolls
he can roll with the punches long as he feels like he's in control
if he wants to stay he stays
if he wants to go he goes
he doesn't care how he gets there long as he gets somewhere he knows

see her heavy makeup and cut t-shirt
every girl out wants to be her
but they look the same already why adjust
reading the magazine secrets
forgetting the topical regrets
cause if she comes home all alone the night's a bust
it's a must the swivel in her hips and the look she gives
it's all her trust if only in the morning she knew where she lived

if she wants to rock she rocks
if she wants to roll she rolls
she can roll with the punches long as she feels like she's in control
if she wants to stay she stays
if she wants to go she goes
she doesn't care how she gets there long as she gets somewhere she knows

and in a wink they're on the brink
from drink to drink and at the bar with cash to blow
shot to shot it's getting hot
advance the plot to see how far it's gonna go
all depends so ditch the friends and grab a cab
another chance at cheap romance
doesn't count 'cause the room is spinning
nothing to lose tonight they both are winning
and they fall in love as they fall in bed

if they wanna rock they rock
if they wanna roll they roll
they can roll with the punches long as they feel like they're in control
if they wanna stay they stay
if they wanna go they go
they don't care how they get there long as they get somewhere they know
