If I ever paint my masterpiece
I hope you're in the way
The days drag by, the nights drag by
The days drag by, the nights drag by
I was never good at living alone

I can see you there
Walking through the gate
With your head hung low
Traveling to see me with nowhere to go
I was never good at living alone.

Let's just run away
Watch the palm trees grow
Breathe some air that's clean
Put a trip together from that magazine
I was never good at living alone

If I ever paint my masterpiece
I hope you're in the way
The days drag by, the nights drag by
The days drag by, the nights drag by
I was never good at living alone

Where would we be now
If you never called
Somewhere else for sure
Contemplating suicide it has no cure
I was never good at living alone

If I ever paint my masterpiece
I hope you're in the way
The days drag by, the nights drag by
The days drag by, the nights drag by
I was never good at living alone
