Monday morning and the coffee's on
What happened to my perfect world
Front page news she's already gone
Say hello to the goodbye girl
LA traffic don't make it better
I wonder if she read my letter
Nine to five keep it all alive
Some days are hard to survive
I feel so down about it

I don't want to be alone
Just waiting by the phone
I can't stand another night on my own
With a new day rising, realizing
That you gotta be free break it down to you and me
Is it everything you want it to be
I wanted you all along
So where did we go wrong?

Never had a lot of money
But we spent a good time in the city
Drinking wine and watching the tele
Old movies she sure looked pretty
This kitchen feels so alone
Haven't cleaned since she's been gone
Spend my nights at your favorite bar
And wonder where you are
I feel so down about it

I don't want to turn back time
I just want to change your mind
I just want a chance to prove to you
I really want to chase these clouds away
Save them for a rainy day
There's nothing left to say
