2 years, 3 months, and 5 days, I've been trying to climb this wall,

2 years, 3 months, and 5 days, Honey, please don't let me fall

Understand my dear, When you come walking near,

I want you back again, Cause I know that I can't win,

It's not for me to choose, I'll take you back again,

When I can afford to lose

I see your picture on my table, And your ghost is sleeping in my bed,

And your good-bye still rattles, and rattles, And rattles around like

thunder through my head

So I'll have one more cigarette And hope that soon I will forget

When you walked in Cause I know that I can't win,

It's not for me to choose, I'll take you back again,

When I can afford to lose.

I'll take you back again When I can afford to lose

And don't leave me hanging on this borderline

The things I could do, with a whisper from you

Could just blow your mind

Understand my dear When you come walking near,

I want you back again, Cause I know that I can't win,

It's not for me to choose, I'll take you back again,

When I can afford to lose

I'll take you back again When I can afford to lose.

I'll take you back again When I can afford to lose.
