Story behind the song
I made it up.
Lyrics
chorus:
Brian, I don't know what I've stayed here for.
Brian, don't follow me out this door.
verse:
Brian, I hate to see things end this way,
But it's time for me to walk away.
They say that fools rush in
And you've gone where I haven't been.
Not sayin' I'm an angel.
I just don't live for danger.
Brian, I still love you,
But I hate what you put me through.
chorus
verse:
I won't be here for the next crisis
When you decide to take a risk.
Living on the fringe.
It makes me come unhinged.
I don't picture us growing old.
My life always on hold.
It's a deal you can't negotiate.
You can't buy my heart cut rate.
chorus
verse:
The last time you landed in court
With money and no means of support,
You think you're Heaven-sent.
The world is your playpen.
I need more than an "I love you."
I need you to have a clue.
You were never much for romance.
But, Brian, I gave you a chance
