She had the eyes of some one older,

I have eyes that wonder 'round,

I couldn't see what really mattered,



Caught hell from my boss,

Don't care about my job,

Caught a cold from the rain,

Don't care if I'm cold,

Played every record that I own to date,

but the only thing I cared about got away,



She was a walking work of art,

I am a broken wind-up-toy,

I thought I knew what really mattered,



Got a flat on the road,

Don't care about my car,

Lost 26 bucks bucks,

Don't care about my rent,

Caught every episode on TV today,

but the only thing I care about got away,



She had a brilliant future,

I have a past,

I have my momories,

but they're fading fast,



Caught Hell from my boss,

Don't care about my job,

Caught a cold from the rain,

Don't care if I'm cold,

Played every record that I own to date,

But the only thing I care about got away,

but the only thing I care about got away,

But the only thing I care about got away...
