I tried to tell you that on Monday

The day before I went away

I was always there when you were coming down

I had to take some time

Take some time



You know I'm needing you for so much pleasure

I'm always wanting you to take me there

I need to be the one to tell you that you're on the right road

And how some time alone is only fair



You know I'm renowned

And feel it's a lonely time I've had

But it never felt that bad



I tried to tell you that on Monday

The day before I went away

I was always there when you were coming down

You never took the time

Took the time



I wish you'd known me when I was much younger

As I closed my eyes upon the world

But now an open mind which seems much stronger

A perfect doubting of your every word



You know I'm renowned

And feel it's a lonely time I've had

But it never felt that bad



I tried to tell you that on Monday

The day before I went away

I was always there when you were coming down

You never took the time

Took the time



C'mon c'mon

C'mon c'mon

C'mon c'mon

C'mon c'mon



You know I'm renowned

For the lonely time I've had

But it never felt that bad



I tried to tell you that on Monday

The day before I went away

I was always there when you were coming down

You never took the time

Took the time



I tried to tell you that on Monday

The day before I went away

I was always there when you were coming down

You never took the time

Took the time



Never took the time

Never took the time

Never took the time

To stop me

I always wanted you to stop me

You never took the time
