Trouble Is

Dag Nasty
(album: Field Day)

be prepared
I know what´s coming next
if she´s entertaining doubts I guess that you know what is best
so I should
be prepared
to make due with what is left
and if I can´t prepare myself at least I know what to expect
my mind´s made up about her
I couldn´t live without her
so many times
so many times
I should have thanked god that I have her
and when I´m back home
safe in her arms
don´t knock on her door
don´t pick up your phone
if she´s entertaining doubts how do I explain
a grain of salt for her to take with the things that you say
despite the distance give me trust
and I will bring it home to you
give me till nothing´s left but patience and I will bring it home to you
she only wants to spare you and I the time
we so faithfully invested
she throw it in our faces
you´ve been taken advantage of
is that all I´m capable of?
if it´s just bitterness don´t let it blind her
