His footsteps in the stairs
They just ruined my peace
With a layman's sense of style
He arrived
The footsteps in the stairs
They just ruin my peace
With a layman's sense of style
He arrived
And I never liked
The cloak-and-dagger approach to love
But with that, one day at a time
I get by
All the strain of being with him
I may appear insane
Someone in constant search for pain
But seen against a backdrop
A fabric not that thin
It's all good, I could've been
Forgetting the name of my lover
Moving right on to another
Going on like this my whole life through
I'm so glad it's over
That I'm here with my three-leaf clover
No longer out for someone new
But I, I never really saw the pieces fall into place
But I'm sure I saw them try
Yes they tried
And I never really saw the pieces fall into place
But I'm sure I saw them try
Yes they tried
All the strain of being with him
I may appear insane
Someone in constant search for pain
But seen against a backdrop
A fabric not that thin
It's all good I could have been
Breaking the bones of a lover
Moving right on to another
Going on like that my whole life through
I'm so glad it's over
That I'm here with my three-leaf clover
No longer after someone new
And that's why I've come to this secret understanding
With myself
Not another one
Not another one
No longer out for another one
No longer after someone new
