You're working for a family I'm working for myself The thought never changes The thought never changes My hands are reaching out to you All across this town I swear that I'll find you I swear that I'll find you Even though you hide away I know You won't forget Cause I've got a piece of your heart You left here And I don't want it There's things to be done And things to be said That should have been said long ago I could stay out here forever But the time will come I know When you can't think about the future For the past times you recall The thought never changes The thought never changes Even when you're making love to him My shadow's on your wall You swore I'd be with you You swore I'd be with you Till the end And it all came true But it's not how we expected it to be, is it? A memory round every corner A ghost coming back for a visit But I'm no ghost And I want this chance Just a ghost of a chance Or the chance of a ghost I will take the stand I will raise my hand I will talk I will talk I've held it in too long So tell me it means nothing to me you Tell me I don't have to think about you Tell me the next will wash out the last Tell me, but don't think I'll tell you it's true Nothing of this is important now Nothing that has any reason to last Still I will work for the future Just to take control of the past She's been working late She comes home Gets on the phone Calls up a few close friends Get a bottle of wine or something And as the evening draws on We sit and reminisce She gets out the scrapbook And they say Did we really live like this Did we really really live like this Entertain me Come you big bad world And entertain me Entertain me cause I'm bored with myself when the lights go out There's nothing to talk about And every silence lets in the same doubt Cause I won't forget a single night we spent And I won't forget a single word of love we said Remember that when you speak to me And I'm working late in the open air And the moon shines on your face Entertain me Come on you big bad world and entertain me
