I was made the wrong way
Won't you do me the right way
Where you gonna be tonight?
'Cause I won't stay too long

Maybe you're the light for me
When you talk to me it strikes me
Won't somebody help me
'Cause I don't feel too strong

Was it something that I said
Was it something that I did
Or the combination of both that did me in

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Although it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say

You know that some of us spin again
And, when you do, you need a friend
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me

And I hate the thought of finally being erased
But, baby, that's the best of me

Everything's behind you
But the hopeless signs beside you
I'm living in the moment
Have I wasted all your time

Was it something that I said
Was it something that I did
Or the combination of both that did me in

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Although it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say

You know that some of us spin again
And, when you do, you need a friend
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me

And I hate the thought of finally being erased
But, baby, that's the best of me
Baby, that's the best of me

You know I'm hoping you'll sing along
Although it's not your favorite song
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left to say

You know that some of us spin again
And, when you do, you'll need a friend
Don't wanna be there when there's nothing left for me

And I hate the thought of finally being erased
But, baby, that's the best of me
