Lonely Cactus

Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do

Late again to dinner
Gave you three weeks notice
As per your requirement
But you're countin' down the minutes
'Til your next appointment
Stuck in awkward silence

Underneath what you do, there's nothin' but blue
And pieces that don't have a place (no place)
Everyone sees clearly, they're scared to hurt your feelings
Now let me tell it to your face

You're a lonely cactus, all on your own
You're on the attack but you sit by the phone
A lonely cactus in the desert sun
But you're scared if you get too close

You wonder why nobody tries anymore
You bleed us dry, still want it all
There's more to life than chasing you in circles
Do you wanna run at all?

Underneath what you do, there's nothin' but blue
And pieces that don't have a place (no place)
I'm so tired of hearin', "Leave your name and number"
Now let me tell it to your face

You're a lonely cactus, all on your own
You're on the attack but you sit by the phone
A lonely cactus in the desert sun
But you're scared if you get too close

You'll hurt someone
Do-do-do-do (oh-oh)
Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
You'll hurt someone
Do-do-do-do (hey!)
Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do

I'll weather the storm and I'll take all these thorns
'Cause I miss you
I'll break through the armour you've worn for so long
'Cause you miss me, too

You're a lonely cactus, all on your own
You're on the attack but you sit by the phone
A lonely cactus in the desert sun
And you're scared of gettin' too close

You're a lonely cactus, all on your own
You're on the attack but you sit by the phone
A lonely cactus in the desert sun
Yeah, you're scared if you get too close

You'll hurt someone
Do-do-do-do (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do
You'll hurt someone
Do-do-do-do
You're so scared (oh-oh)
Do-do-do-do
That you'll hurt someone
