Now you know
That I stood outside your window just a little too long

What you gonna do
When the hours pass away
And you know that I'm gone
Well, it may be a week
It may be a day
I'm six blocks over
And I don't know what to say to you

Jokin' 'bout your mother
Went a little too far
But you caught me
Out with the others 'til the early dawn

There may be a time
If we played it right
I'm six blocks over and you wouldn't spend the night with me
Now the hours and the minutes just fly away

You win some - And you lose some
You gotta get it right
Or I'll be saying
Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye

Thinkin' back to
The way you're holdin' me down
I'd be better off dead
Now you know
That the time is running out on the things we said

Well, it may be a week
It may be a day
I'm six blocks over and I don't know what to say to you
Now the hours and the minutes just fly away

You win some - And you lose some
Well you win some - And you lose some
You gotta get it right
Or I'll be saying
Bye bye bye bye bye
Yeah I'll be sayin'
Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye
