It was so much simpler then
Back when I called you my girlfriend
I would go out on the town
Play shows all around
Always knew where I would end;
Back in your arms where all would mend
Now, my wits are at an end
And I’m standing here again
It was so much simpler then

It was so much simpler then
Back when you called me your boyfriend
Though you knew I was a wreck
Wore my key around your neck
Never dreamed that it would end
But now we’re on and off again
Now, my wits are at an end
And I’m standing here again
It was so much simpler then

And it’s so horrific now
Every time we’re not together
When I go out on the town
All alone in a crowd
All those faces all around
They ask me, “Do you have a girlfriend.”
They ask me, “Do you have a girlfriend.”
They ask me, “Do you have a girlfriend.”
I tell them, “I don’t know.”
Don’t make me tell them, “I don’t know.”
Don’t make me tell them, “I don’t know.”
Don’t make me tell them, “I don’t know.”
