[Verse 1] Tell it straight, tell it true
Long-gone love come back to you
Well it only make you lonely
I been down that very well
Kissed the bottom, live to tell
And it only left me lonely

[Chorus] It isn’t like I asked for this
Bury me beneath the weight of what I used to miss
I’ll be digging out forever now from under it
Tugging on a thread that run me round and round
Turn me inside out

[Verse 2] Funny how you think you know
What you feel and what you don’t
Well you just might catch a surprise
Wind is calm, water smooth
But a longing deep inside of you
That’s been sleeping might come creeping

[Chorus] It isn’t like I asked for this
Bury me beneath the weight of what I used to miss
I’ll be digging out forever now from under it
Tugging on a thread that run me round and round
Turn me inside out
