Why did you leave me? What did I do? Toured around Europe Then cheated on you Now I'm at the piano With a paper and pen But alliteration alone won't bring you back to me again Oh but I'm only a singer It's all I can do I'm singing a song, a song about you As though you would listen As though you'd be swayed As though you'd fall in love again over something I made But I'm pouring my heart out all over the page Because you've got to do something in this world To run away Yeah but If I were a joiner You know what I'd do (What would I do?) I'd put up a shelf A shelf all about you Yeah all about you All about you I know you know that I miss you I know you know that I cried I know a clever made alate? Won't hide the fact that I've lied Being around you Is so very hard You're like one more establishment From which I've been barred And if I were the landlord What would I do? (What would I do?) I'd open a bar A bar about you If I were a joiner You know what I'd do (What would I do?) I'd put up a shelf A shelf about you All about you Yes all about you All about you All about you
