darlin it needs to be said we re still young but our love is stone dead cold as the sheets on the big empty bed where i will not lay down anymore time will win at every race the wrecking ball swings at a glacial pace it creeps up upon you like the lines on your face in the aches at the end of the day oh isn t it strange strange but isn t any less true that i spent the best years of my life just waitin on you all for the change change isn t easy to see that you spent the best years of your life just tryin to change me well i look at the world and i feel small seems much further back up every time that you fall so you have no hard feelings i have no feelings at all still i hope i can see you around someday we ll look back and we ll see i was not right for you you were not meant for me if we were made for each other we were made imperfectly from pieces that would never fit right so isn t it strange it s strange but it isn t any less true that i spent the best years of my life waitin on you  all for the change change isn t easy to see that you spent the best years of your life just tryin to change me oh tryin to change me
