"Few And Far Between" lyrics

The last time that I saw you
You were headed for the boarding gate
And I knew that it would be a long wait
I know I wasn't always there sweet darling
When you needed me by your side
But when I was gone and you were home all alone
Why did you have to run and hide?

Few and far between now baby
You said you would always be mine
Few and far between honey
You do it to me every time

You knew I'd come home looking for you now sugar
But you would not even answer the phone
Why did you insist on hurting me baby
I sit here and I cry alone
You know it ain't the first time
I've been there honey
And I know it won't be the last
Rock riding mama don't you treat me so mean
Don't you count me out so fast

Few and far between now baby
Why don't you just tell me we are through?
Few and far between honey
I'm gonna catch up to you

The last time I saw you
You were headed for the boarding gate
And I knew that it would be a long time
For your love I'm gonna have to wait
I know I wasn't always there sweet darling
When you need me by your side
But when I was gone and you were home all alone
Why did you have to run and hide?

Few and far between now baby
You said that you would always be mine
Few and far between now honey
You do it to me every time

Few and far between now baby
Why don't you just tell me were through
Few and far between now honey
I'm gonna catch up to you
