That's Enough Of Me Lyrics

Well you got your clothes there drying on the window sill

A heart that won't break and a mind set to kill

A piece of your thigh on the brink of my mind

And a conscience that wishes that true love was blind

Oh yeah that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

I got a prison cell and a sentence that rhymes

And a piggy bank filled up with nickels and dimes

A piece of my finger that sticks to the strings

And a ghost in the closet who moans and sings

That that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

You see I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of me babe

There ain't no need to carry on

You've got a teardrop forming on your bedroom wall

That drops to the ground whenever I forget to call

A diary filled with passion and pain

That reads just like a newspaper caught out in the rain

Oh yeah well that's enough of me babe

You see I'd rather be lonely

That's enough of me babe

You see I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

I got a Christmas tree that ain't got no lights

And a potpourri full of dangerous sights

I've done everything I ever wanted to do

Except to make sweet love to a woman like you

Well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

You know I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

Well the world gets amplified when the world gets cold

The world gets angry when the world gets old

Counting the candles on its birthday cake

And wondering why it can't sleep when it's awake

But that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

You got my mind strung out on a backyard fence

And I keep looking for an answer but it doesn't make any sense

I see you when I touch you and the night comes rolling in

But whenever I'm alone I start to singing this hymn

I say that's enough of me babe

You see I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

You know I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

I got a torn up heart with no place to go

And a worn out car that doesn't want to drive through the snow

A backward mind and an evil glance

That sends a light through the shadow of circumstance

Oh yeah well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

You know I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

You could find yourself on a one way path

Through a haunted forest or the grapes of wrath

While the emerald city and the yellow brick road

Are concentrating on all the feelings that we sold

Oh that's enough of me babe

You see I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

You know I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

Because I'm a wayward child in a mansion of mirrors

Whose thoughts grow cold whenever love disappears

I've got a piece of your memory taped to my wrist

In the very same place where it first was kissed

Oh well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

Well you know it's a long way back to the place we've been before

With a smile at the window and a wolf at the door

With love on my lungs and fire on your breath

Halfway through life but halfway to death

Well that's enough of me babe

You know I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

You know I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

I can still feel the dewdrops growing on the window sill

When the day isn't born it sets out to kill

So touch me once and then you can touch me again

Because I've got a song in my head and a disease in this pen

Oh well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be lonely

Well that's enough of me babe

I'd rather be gone

Well that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on

Yeah that's enough of this babe

There ain't no need to carry on
