This was written in about 5 minutes. My wife at the time had broke up with me for the third time. She wanted to get back together and this time I said no. When she left I picked up my guitar and pretty much wrote this on the spot.

Lyrics
Every Time
Phil Berbig 2005
C,F,G
I dont have the time
And I dont have the strength
And I dont want to keep on with this fight
Ive got half a mind
To just plain run away
I dont want to work to make these wrongs right
Every time you come back to me
Its the same old story
Nobody wins
Every time you come back to me
It gets a little bit clearer
Its time to start a new life
On my own
I dont know just why
Id want to be with you
After all the things youve done to me
I used to want to try
But now I know its true
Believe me baby this sure aint no fun for me
Chorus
Bridge: Its time to start again
Its time to start on my own
I dont have the time
And I dont have the strength
I dont want to keep on with this fight.
