acting this way

it's three o'clock in the morning

when you finally answer your phone

ask me why i keep calling

why i don't leave you alone

where you've been

who've you been with

is all i really wanna know

and then you hang up the phone

girl

knowing you're hurtin' me so

sometimes i find it so hard

to let you get away

so i keep on your trail

girl

that's why i'm acting this way

i've lived on a fantasy

that you still wanted me

you said to face reality

this is something that should've never

never been

i've thought up about tryin

that you might take me back

but false hopes of not dyin'

have kept me on one track

sometimes i find it so hard

to let you get away

girl

that's why i keep on your trail

baby

that's why i'm acting this way

i hoped you've finally faced it

and started moving on

both our times have been wasted

so i'm probably better off

still there'll always be these questions

that keep on nagging me

but baby

why not try it?

this is something that might never

never be

and i feel so happy

to let you get away

ohhh

yeah

i'm gonna get off your trail

girl

and stop acting this way

and

oh

i guess i'm so happy

to let you get away

yeah

i'm gonna get off your trail

girl

and stop acting this way

i'm gonna stay off your trail

girl

and stop acting this way
