Intro :
Well am I burning in the back of your m ind
'Cause girl I can't get you out of mine
And when I heard you say that you'd come o f age
But girl you don't look any older to m e
And what becomes of y ou
When the fat lady sings her l ast tune?
When you're h olding on by a pin or a t hread
Will you t hink of me when you take your l ast breath?
When you're crying out for a little more t ime
Will I still be b urning there
In the back of y our mind?
Well how is life living out on your own?
Well how was life out of house and of home?
And did you do the things that you said you would?
Or right the wrongs that you said you should?
And what becomes of y ou
Can you s ay it's true that the life you've led was the life meant to be led b y you
When you're h olding on by a pin or a t hread
Will you t hink of me when you take your l ast breath?
When you're c rying out for a little more t ime
Will I still be b urning there
In the back of your mind?
Girl I know that with time there comes c hange
Although I think I've more or less did the s ame
I wonder if the same can be said for you
Girl have you stayed the same t oo?
And what became of y ou
When the fat lady sung her last tune?
Say what became of y ou
Can you s ay it's true that the life you've led was the life meant to be led by you
Were you h olding on by a pin or a t hread?
Did you t hink of me when you took your l ast breath?
Were you c rying out for a little more t ime?
And was I still b urning there
In the back of your mind?
