baby i bought wine and roses on my way home
yeah i know we can’t afford it but life doesn’t last too long
this world has gone halfcrazy
and knocked us both to our knees
i’m fumbling for the words to try to tell ya
i love you for hangin’ onto me
when anyone else would’ve been long gone
packed it up and headed back home
and not a soul would blame you after what i put you through
yeah anyone else would’ve gone insane
called the game on account of rain
anyone else anyone else
anyone but you
mayday baby all the rivets popped loose it’s a total tailspin
too much grindstone too little time with you
girl you know it’s wearing thin
baby let’s trade in these teardrops
for warm kisses on skin
you got a drawer full of iou’s
and it’s high time you called those things in
when anyone else would’ve been long gone
packed it up and headed back home
and not a soul would blame you after what i put you through
yeah anyone else would’ve gone insane
called the game on account of rain
anyone else anyone else
anyone but you
you’ve passed up so many chances
to walk right out that door
instead of dodging a champagne cork
and watchin’ the wet clothes fall to the floor
when anyone else would’ve been long gone
packed it up and headed back home
and you can hide behind a cheshire cat grin but you know it’s true
yeah anyone else would’ve gone insane
called the game on account of rain
anyone else anyone else
anyone but you
anyone else
girl anyone but you
