In the Long Run

Since you've been gone I've been thinking 'bout it all

Since you've been gone I've been bouncing off the wall

I know it's wrong to be mixing alcohols

Love before liquor never been sicker

Since you've been gone I've been working overtime

Since you've been gone I've been keeping occupied

But moving on's like a full time 9 to5

Wheeling and dealing just to forget the feeling

Of you in my arms

How does something so right end up so wrong

Now I'm in somebody else's bed thinking 'bout you and me

Trying to clear my head but I get no clarity

Cause even when I'm with someone

I'm still coming up short in the long run

Got to admit I am short here while it lasts

Got to admit that the morning's kick my ass

I reminisce about us after the fact

High as the ceiling just to forget the feeling

Of you in my arms

How does something so right end up so wrong

Now I'm in somebody else's bed thinking 'bout you and me

Trying to clear my head but I get no clarity

Cause even when I'm with someone

I'm still coming up short in the long run

In the long run

In the long run

No quick fix for this disease

When a heart breaks you gotta let it bleed

No quick fix for this disease

When a heart breaks you gotta let it bleed

Now I'm in somebody else's bed thinking 'bout you and me

Trying to clear my head but I get no clarity

Cause even when I'm with someone

I'm still coming up short in the long run

In the long run

I'm in somebody else's bed

I get no clarity
