They stick out like an anchor 
 Don't touch the flowers 
 Cuz you can't hear them well 
 Couldn't last forever 
 Lord ya know it's gonna end sometime 
  
 This is not an order 
 You don't have to be here 
 Can you understand me 
 Screamin like the wind blows 
 Did I blow your mind 
 Leave you breathless 
  
 I guess I've changed ya couldn't you 
 Given all we've been through 
 Heaven knows I've been around and around 
  
 Eighty six the candles 
 I'm scared of the bright lights 
 Girl, try not to touch me 
 So you don't feel me 
 Or you can touch my shoulder 
 Put your lips to my ears 
 And scream is there anyone home 
 Won't you answer me 
  
 I guess I've changed ya couldn't you 
 Given all we've been through well 
 Heaven knows I've been around and around 
 I guess I've strained well how bout that 
 Here's my life, here's a doorstep 
 Heaven knows I've been around and around 
  
 I guess it's been a good year 
 For roses and aggressions 
 For flowers and freeways 
 I guess I'll put a smile on 
 Or get a new girlfriend 
 Ya put a new hat on 
  
 This is not an order 
 You don't have to answer 
 Only need to listen 
 If only for a moment 
 Did I blow your mind girl 
 Did I leave you breathless I said 
  
 I guess I've changed ya couldnt you 
 Given all we've been through 
 Heaven knows I've been around and around 
 I guess I've strained well how bout that 
 Here's my life, here's a doorstep well 
 Heaven knows I've been around and around 
 Cuz I've been around and around 
 Cuz I've been around and around 
 Cuz I've been around and around 
 I've been around and around
