Sunday afternoon
In a night you won't be perfect you won't be pure
And Monday asking you
Why did you how could you play me for the fool
(Refrain)
Oh, there's no simple answer
Oh, there's no reason at all
Must've been a beautiful daydream, you didn't come home 'til three
Must've been a helluva joyride, you didn't once think of me
Must've been a lot of people saying you took more than you gave
What do you take to take the pain away
I turned to find the truth
The closer I got the further I got from you
Cause I burned myself on you
How could you why did you play me for the fool
(Refrain)
You tore every stitch
You bait and you switch
You told me you'd change
You changed everything, everything
(Come chase the blues from the gloom of my room)
Oh, there's no simple answer
Oh, there's no reason at all
And I know I got no simple answer
Hey, I'm not blaming you all
What do you take to take the pain away
What do you take to make it all go away
In a night you won't be perfect you won't be pure
And Monday asking you
Why did you how could you play me for the fool
(Refrain)
Oh, there's no simple answer
Oh, there's no reason at all
Must've been a beautiful daydream, you didn't come home 'til three
Must've been a helluva joyride, you didn't once think of me
Must've been a lot of people saying you took more than you gave
What do you take to take the pain away
I turned to find the truth
The closer I got the further I got from you
Cause I burned myself on you
How could you why did you play me for the fool
(Refrain)
You tore every stitch
You bait and you switch
You told me you'd change
You changed everything, everything
(Come chase the blues from the gloom of my room)
Oh, there's no simple answer
Oh, there's no reason at all
And I know I got no simple answer
Hey, I'm not blaming you all
What do you take to take the pain away
What do you take to make it all go away
