Don't eat your heart out

Somebody's waiting

And they don't care

Where you've been, or who you've seen

Or what they think

Don't eat your heart out

And whither waiting

For what's not there

In your hand, or in the air

Or overseas

{And you'll always sink

Deep, beyond my reach

And deafen to the voice that speaks

Don't eat your heart out}

Nobody's waiting

And no one cares

Where you've been

Or who you've seen

Or what you think

{chorus} . . .
