i've been coming around this corner

i know one day we'll meet

i'll look in your eyes

and i'll look up the street

and i'll cover my heart so you can't see it beat

and i'll struggle



'cause how can i say when i don't know

if i'll feel loving

or if i'll feel low

i may wind up and get into trouble



knowing that you've been bad

is one of the worst feelings i ever had

knowing that you've been bad

did it mean much to you?

i thought i knew you

now i wish i had



i'll be coming 'round this corner

one day real slow

and i'll see myself reflected

in someone i used to know

and i may look away

and keep going home

and try to forget it before i get to the door



but how can i say when i don't know

if i'll feel loving or if i'll feel low

i may wind up and cry a big puddle



knowing that you've been bad

is one of the worst feelings i ever had

knowing that you've been bad

did it mean much to you?

i thought i knew you

now i wish i had



how can you forgive that fast?

why do they call it the past

oh, when nothing has passed
