I throught Iīd sit right down And write this song for you I think you never understood my point of view You came into my life, a smell of summer wine Poisoned up my blood and left me behind Mysterious, you were so unpredictable Charming ways were always so believable Circumstances made it all come shining through To tell the truth was not what you intended to You could not live without me you said So baby, how come youre not dead yet? Everything you said to me about being true Now I realize that words donīt mean that much to you I canīt believe you wasted all this time on me Showered me with promises and poetry You could not live without me you said So baby, how come youīre not dead yet? People come and people go We hurt each other This I know But itīs not that simple When the hour is late Baby donīt go I see you walking by but I donīt feel a thing Funny how I thought that we were everyghing Someone else will now be falling for that smile Iīm proud to say that Iīm no longer worth your while You could not live without me you said You could not live without me you said But baby, how come youīre not dead yet?
