"Joey" lyrics

"Joey"

Joey
Baby
Don't get crazy

Detours
Fences
I get defensive

I know you've heard it all before
So I don't say it anymore
I just stand by and let you fight your secret war

And though I used to wonder why
I used to cry 'til I was dry
And still sometimes I get a strange pain inside
Oh joey, if you're hurtin' so am I

And Joey
Honey
I've got
Some money

And all is forgiven
Listen, oh listen

And if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you
And when you said I scared you
Well I guess you scare me too

But we got lucky once before
And I don't want to close the door
So if you're somewhere out there
Passed out on the floor
Oh joey, I'm not angry anymore

And if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you
And when you said I scared you
Well I guess you scare me too

But we got lucky once before
And I don't want to close the door
So if you're somewhere drunk
And passed out on the floor
Oh Joey
I'm not angry anymore
And Oh Joey
I'm not angry anymore
