Yeahhhhhhhhh, yeah, yeah
Now it's fallin' around you
Pick up the pieces
You know they won't fit
Teardrops are fallin' down like rain
Ocean water around you
I see it comin' 'round again
I know

Now I realize that I'll be fine and I'll forget you
Will you ever learn that there's more to life than helping yourself?
Will I reach out my hand and stop you from fallin', which starts this over again?

This time there's nowhere left to talk as I run down the boardwalk
Trying hard to forget your face
I know
Wish I could finally find the strength to open up your letters
I think I'll throw them all away instead

Now I realize that I'll be fine and I'll forget you
Will you ever learn that there's more to life than helping yourself?
Will I reach out my hand and stop you from fallin', which starts this over again?

Don't know if I can bring myself to open up your letters
Maybe I'll throw them all away
Forget you all together
Know now I'm waiting back at home
Know now I'm waiting back at home and I am starving for affection
Affection....... [repeat x4]

When will I finally find the strength to open up your letters?
I think I'll throw them all away
Forget you all together
When will I find my way back home?
Find my way on back home
My way back home
And now it's falling around you
Pick up the pieces
You know they won't fit
