Baby its been quiet here without you
Since our love split up and parted ways
I just watch the time pass by the hour
And the hazy nights turn into days
Guess you think that Im some kinda moron
Guess youve told your friends that Im a freak
Guess youve told them all about my secrets
Guess youve made them think that Im so weak

Its a shame about the weather
Its a shame about the crime
Its a shame about elvis
Its a shame about the times
Its a shame that the stories
You have heard of me are true
Its a damn shame but most of all
Its a shame Im losing you
Oh its a damn shame about you

Baby does it ever make you wonder
How we ever came to get this far
Living in a time warp with a nosebleed
Nothing ever seemed to be too hard

Baby are you happy where you are now
Let me know cos I have no idea
You should know I love you til it kills me
But youre better off without old me

Its a shame about the weather
Its a shame about the crime
Its a shame about elvis
Its a shame about the times
Its a shame that the stories
You have heard of me are true
Its a damn shame but most of all
Its a shame Im losing you
Oh its a damn shame about you

Its such a damn old shame
And here we go again
Its such a damn old shame
We got ourselves to blame
Hauling ourselves through pain
We got it going again
Its such a damn old shame

Its a shame about the weather
Its a shame about the crime
Its a shame about elvis
Its a shame about the times
Its a shame that the stories
You have heard of me are true
Its a damn shame but most of all
Its a shame Im losing you
Oh its a damn shame about you
