lyrics

It occurs to me I'm playing dead,
I'm safer in a cockpit than in a cargo bed,
He said "This is a stick-up, don't anybody move",
Then he took my spot on the bed,

Andy, don't you want me anymore?
I've been loving you...
Andy ever since you made me yours,
And wrote your name on my boot,
You used to hold me everyday but now that just seems lightyears away,
I can't get used to being alone,

Now I spend too much time by myself,
Try to keep emotions high up on the shelf,
I was always there when you'd need a friend,
You would pull my strings, please don't make this the end,

Andy, don't you want me anymore?
I've been loving you...
Andy ever since you made me yours,
And wrote your name on my boot,
You used to hold me everyday but now that just seems lightyears away,
I can't get used to being alone,

(Please listen to me! No! No come back....no come back...no come back....no, come back!)
(Andy is gone, Andy is gone)
(Why would Andy want me? Why would Andy want you? Look at you!)

Andy, don't you want me anymore?
I've been loving you...
Andy ever since you made me yours,
And wrote your name on my boot,
You used to make me feel okay but now that just seems lightyears away,
I can't get used to being alone,
I can't get used to being alone,
I can't get used to being alone
