1. Strophe And she pours herself another cup of coffee as she contemplates the stain across the wall. And it's in between the cleaning and the washing that's when looking back's the hardest part of all. And she always did her best to try and please him while he always did his best to make her cry. And she got down on her knees to stop him leaving, but he always knew one day he'd say goodbye.
1. Refrain Where are your friends, where are your children? Is this your house, is this your home? Does nothing ever last forever? Does everybody sleep alone? Alone?
Instrumental
2. Strophe And he tears the business tags from his old suitcase, as he packs away the pieces of his life. They all love him but they always try to change him. That's what happens when a girl becomes a wife. And she pours herself another cup of coffee as the pictures leave a clean space on the wall. And it's in between the leaving and the loving That's when looking back's the hardest part of all.
2. Refrain Where are your friends, where are your children? Is this your house, is this your home? Does nothing ever last forever? Does everybody sleep alone? Alone?
Instrumental Alone, oh yeah
Coda Don't look back and don't give up, pour yourself another cup. Don't look back and don't give up, pour yourself another cup. And she pours herself another cup of coffee. And she pours herself another cup of coffee.
