Lyrics

Well I have driven down this road a hundred times before
But I've always missed the turning that led me right to your door
And I couldn't help but notice that it's fallin' off its hinges
Your roof's got rust, your floor's got dust
Your father's prone to binges

So what's so wrong with me, my love?
I can't get near you now
Been so long
I just don't know should I smile and wave or shake your hand or bow

Well I have gotten older, it's very plain to see
The walk I walked, the road I rode has ridden over me
And you surely must have noticed that I've fallen off my hinges
Any girl I've met, she must accept
A fair few burns and singes

So what's so wrong with me, my love?
I can't get near you now
Been so long
I just don't know should I smile and wave or shake your hand or bow

In the time that I have travelled far across the world
A heavy stone has held you down that I will lift, my girl
And though you deserve better than to be loved by me
If you give me access to your fetters I have kept the key

So what's so wrong with me, my love?
I can't get near you now
Been so long
I just don't know should I smile and wave or shake your hand or bow

So what's so wrong with me, my love?
I can't get near you now
Been so long
I just don't know should I smile and wave or shake your hand or bow
