For a true friend, you always knew when the work was late And the bill was paid I rode the night bus, I swore that I was not to try and stay But oh my heart gets lonely when no one seems to care And I can't put that on you only, no that would not be fair But still I find I'm saying Oh my Amy, could you blame me There's so much I wanna say But words just lead me far astray I don't know why I fear I might die Every time you walk away For a grown man, I sure haven't grown in to how I feel Scared hands on a steering wheel And outside the Nitehawk, I told you my love for you was real I said oh my heart gets lonely and I know yours does too Don't you want to get to know me the way that I know you You just gotta understand me now Oh my Amy, could you blame me There's so much I wanna say But words just lead me far astray I don't know why I fear I might die Every time you walk away Oh my darling, I feel it starting Oh that fragile tender ache every time the fever breaks And I don't know why I check the night sky Just to make sure I'm alive so I can see you one more time And feel the same old pain every time you walk away
