Lyrics
There's teardrops running down my face
I lost in love's lonely race thanks to you
Now That I know that I've been chased
I guess I got my taste of the real you
You always knew just exactly what to say
So now that I've got one foot out the door
What 'cha gonna do without me here anymore
Out on the dance floor by myself
All my courage on the shelf behind the bar
With every chance that I should take
Comes a silence I can't break
I know that won't get me far
You always knew you would win it in the end
You kicked me while I lie there on the floor
What 'cha gonna do without me here anymore
I'm so tired, love expired, but I'm still alive
It's cold and lonely in the dark
As I'm walking through the park
With my hands by my side
And just my shadow follows me
Not such good company, but that's the pain that goes with pride
So when I see you I'll just turn the other way
Cause I'm not the type to even up the score
What 'cha gonna do without me here anymore
