Lyrics: Joey
Album: Bloodletting
Artist: Concrete Blonde
 

Joey, baby – don’t get crazy
Detours. fences… i get defensive
I know you’ve heard it all before –
So i don’t say it anymore
I just stand by and watch you
Fight your secret war.
Although i used to wonder why –
I used to cry till i was dry.
Still sometimes i get a strange pain
Inside
Oh, joey, if you’re hurting so am i.

Joey, honey – i got some money
All is forgiven. listen, listen
And if i seem to be confused
I didn’t mean to be with you.
And when you said i scared you,
Well i guess you scared me too.
But we got lucky once before
And i don’t want to close the door
And if you’re somewhere out there
Passed out on the floor.
Oh joey, i’m not angry anymore.
