I couldn't believe what I read when I got your letter
Said you needed to take some time to work out your life, yeah
Well, it's easy for you to just go off and do what you want
any time you please
Don't expect me to wait
If you leave it's too late
You're gonna have to crawl back on your knees
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When you're down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it won't get better
Cos you've made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Wotcha gonna do
I knew you'd been feeling the need to just change direction
But I didn't know you were gonna walk away from me, no
Now you're out on your own cos you think you've outgrown
All the things that you left behind
But it's crazy to see
cos you know without me
You're gonna end up losing more than you find
Wotcha gonna do when it gets so lonely
When you're down and so far away from home
How ya gonna feel, you know it won't get better
Cos you've made your bed so you can lie in it on your own
Yeah, yeah
Now don't be a fool on yourself
cos you've got so much to lose
And I really love you baby
Don't you know that I do, yeah
How ya gonna feel, you know it won't get better
Now you're down and so far away
Now you're down and so far away
