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...
