I see a frightened little girl
Too scared of having another man run out on her
She is calling, I think this time he
Might pick up his phone, but no
I see a cocky little bitch too proud but
Reeling with compromising and a false hope,
He's giving but only when it benefits himself
Jodie, Jodie; let the time just pass by,
You know he's coming back, don't let yourself cry
Come on, come on now, keep it coming sweet Jodie
'Cause you know he's coming back and you will see
'Cause he's living a lie, living a lie, and he'll find out for
Himself exactly what it's like to lose and die, baby
I see the tips of her hands,
So frail and calm now
Gasping for air
As he tells you he cares,
As he waits for a good time to say
It cuts so deep...
This time he stood there
And watched her bleed
Only to find out
She had been waiting
For her time to speak,
To tell him she's only human,
She just wants someone to love
Jodie, Jodie; let the time just pass by,
You know he's coming back, don't let yourself cry
Come on, come on now, keep it coming sweet Jodie
'Cause you know he's coming back and you will see
'Cause he's living a lie, living a lie, and he'll find out for
Himself exactly what it's like to lose and die, baby
Just wait until the timing is completely right
Just wait until...
Trying to just live your life
Striving to fit all the needs
Of the arrogant thief
You gotta dig deep, before you get to the center
You gotta hold tight before the storm becomes gentle
You gotta keep strong baby just take it from me
Because when he comes around again it'll be to hurt you,
Trust me
Jodie, Jodie; let the time just pass by,
You know he's coming back, don't let yourself cry
Come on, come on now, keep it coming sweet Jodie
'Cause you know he's coming back and you will see
'Cause he's living a lie, living a lie, and he'll find out for
Himself exactly what it's like to lose and die, baby
