Why I Always End Up Alone

I know that you're here, to get you some attention
You know I'd surely like to oblige
But I guess that I, misconstrued your intentions
'Cause mine was not what you had in mind
Now this is not my first, gross misunderstanding
You know I always miss the signs
I just get confused every time I'm on this road
But that crash, it comes every time

Can somebody tell me, what's going on
Give me just a little hint of what I'm doing wrong
All I ever wanted was a simple explanation
Can someone please throw me a bone
Can anybody tell me, why I always end up alone

You know, I got myself a girl, don't know how it happened
I just can't believe my luck
She's the perfect one, she's everything I ever wanted
And I'm not gonna mess it up
But I can never tell, just what's going on
In that pretty little head of hers
She never tells me nothing, I don't know where I stand
Is ignorance for better or worse

Can somebody tell me, what's going on
Give me just a little hint of what I'm doing wrong
All I ever wanted was a simple explanation
Can someone please throw me a bone
Can anybody tell me, why I always end up alone

I gave you everything that you ever wanted
Kept my eyes on that big brass ring
Worked my fingers to the bone, came home late and all alone
You never thanked me for a single thing
And now you're telling me, I'm not the man that you wanted
Surely, you deserve something more
Your life is feeling empty and you know it's all my fault
And now you're walking out the door

Can somebody tell me, what's going on
Give me just a little hint of what I'm doing wrong
All I ever wanted was a simple explanation
Can someone please throw me a bone
Can anybody tell me, why I always end up alone
