Comes and Goes

Judging by your pauses on the phone,
What's left unsaid is better left unknown
Maybe we'd be better off alone
The way we used to feel, it only comes and goes

It comes and goes

In the middle of the night I'm pleading
And I know that you're not really sleeping
By the half-light of the dawn I'm seething,
Counting every minute until you're leaving

You come and go

At least we used to care enough to shout
Now we'd rather have our peace than have it out
Uncertainty's been swallowed up by doubt
I guess this is what my folks were always sighing about

It comes and goes

You come and go
