somehow I’m still hung up
tried to quit but not that hard
cause the truth is
you’re my crutch
and moving on would be entirely too much
not in Allston much these days
keep my distance just in case
cause if I’d known from the start
I still would have let you break my heart
cause you’re the chip on my shoulder
somebody to brood over
I was just a fool to think you’d change
you’re the fire in my belly
you’re my big whoa nelly
I guess you were the one that got away
a half finished love affair
on a cloud then shot down in midair
far off echoes from this bed
ballroom melodies stuck in my head
but you weren’t like other boys
I ripped up your polaroids
and I thought that I was through
but between us I kept one or two
cause you’re the chip on my shoulder
somebody to brood over
I was just a fool to think you’d change
you’re the fire in my belly
you’re my big whoa nelly
I guess you were the one that got away
I guess that you could say that
god knows you’ve played that game
at my expense oh didn’t you?
well now you’re just somebody
yeah that’s all you are honey
now you’re just somebody I once knew
thought you were my lover
but everytime that I try another
I just think of you that rainy day
when you changed my guitar strings
you got to the heart of me
oh don’t you even start with me
yeah you got to the heart of me
but where did you get the heart
oh where did you get the heart
where’d you get the heart
to walk away, hey oh
where’d you get the heart
to walk away?
