Baby I bought wine and roses on my way home
Yeah I know we can't afford it,
But life doesn't last too long
This world has gone half crazy
And knocked us both to our knees
I'm fumbling for the words to try to tell ya
I love you for hanging on to me

When anyone else would've been long gone
Packed it up and headed back home
And not a soul would blame you
After what I put you through
Yeah anyone else would've gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, anyone else, anyone else but you

Mayday Baby, all the rivets popped loose,
It's a total tailspin, too much grindstone
Too little time with you
Girl, you know it's wearing thin
Baby let's trade these teardrops
For warm kisses on the skin
You got a drawer full of IOU's
And it's high time you called those things in.

When anyone else would've been long gone
Packed it up and headed back home
And not a soul would blame you
After what I put you through
Yeah anyone else would've gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, anyone else, anyone else but you

You've passed up so many chances
To walk right out that door
Instead of dodging a champage cock
And watchin' the wet clothes fall to the floor.

When anyone else would've been long gone
Packed it up and headed back home
And not a soul would blame you
After what I put you through
Yeah anyone else would've gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, anyone else, anyone else but you

When anyone else would've been long gone
Packed it up and headed back
And you can hide behind a Cheshire cat grin,
But you know its true
Yeah anyone else would've gone insane
Called the game on account of rain
Anyone else, Anyone else, Anyone else,
Anyone but you Girl... anyone but You...
