These Days lyrics

I think I was better off before this song began.
So clear the eye can see lately that you don't know who I am.
Everybody tried to tell me something that I never could believe.
Staring back it seemed so much different than it did in front of me.

But I know there's no good in looking back on yesterday,
And wondering what could have happened then.

[Chorus]
You think you can give me what I want.
You say, you say.
I think I'm better off alone.
These days, these days.

Why should I put my trust in something, that I never could believe.
So one day you could find something better, just to pack your things and leave.
Loneliness is a friend for the moment, but you wont walk out on me.

But I know there's no good in looking back on yesterday,
And wondering what could have happened then.

[Chorus]

I'm tired,
And I'm sick of waiting.
Maybe I'll die alone.
'Cause I cant take another damn day of waiting here, for you to come
To me.
Yeah!
Baby, baby please tell me why.

[Chorus: x2]
