Lyrics: Joey
Album: Classic Masters
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 let you
fight your secret war.
And though 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’ve got the 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 wanna close the door
And if you’re somewhere out there
passed out on the floor.
Oh Joey, I’m not angry anymore.
