Here I go again sayin' goodbye to all of my friends,
But they all say when we gonna get to see you?
I don't know when it's all gonna end,
Could somebody here comprehend,
Because I'm gettin' sick and tired of not bein' around to be with you,

You know I ain't gone long, and though it feels like a lifetime, we'll get through.
When you're gettin' sick and tired of livin' on the bread line, anything will do.
But I can't go for long without comin' home to be with you,
Because you just don't know, don't know, oh, oh,
I said you just don't know, ooh, oh, oh, woah,
You just don't know, how hard it is to not be by your side,
Every night, I guess it's easier if you try.

Here I go again, get in my car drivin' miles on end,
And I can't begin to bear it anymore than you can.
And I don't know how much more I can take, before my bones begin to break,
But if you stick and a keep with it I'll become a better man now.

You know I ain't gone long, and though it feels like a lifetime, we'll get through.
When you're gettin' sick and tired of livin' on the bread line, anything will do.
But I can't go for long without comin' home to be with you,
Because you just don't know, oh, oh,
I said you just don't know, ooh, oh, oh, woah,
You just don't know, how hard it is to not be by your side,
Every night, I guess it's easier if you try.

But I don't know if I can take this,
But I guess I will get by,
All I really wanna do is try to get myself right on through this,
And take control of my own life, my life
Take control of my own life.

You know I ain't gone long, and though it feels like a lifetime, we'll get through.
When you're gettin' sick and tired of livin' on the bread line, anything will do.
But I can't go for long without comin' home to be with you,
Because you just don't know, oh, oh,
I said you just don't know ooh, oh, oh, woah,
You just don't know, how hard it is to not be by your side,
Every night, I guess it's easier if you try.
