lyrics

Chasing your shadows in your field of dreams
You say that you love me, back what can you mean?
I'm not a shadow, I'm real human being
Am I your star player or just part of a team?

I'm your third base lover, you won't take me home
You run me around and leave me alone
Then out of left field, I'm just a lawn gnome
The bases are loaded but you won't take me home

The signals that your catcher makes
Don't match the path your pitches take
And I don't want to sit and wait
For you to bring me up to the plate

I've got the pinch hitter blues from helping you score
When it never ends up as anything more
Than anything I've ever gotten before
Now our little game has turned into a war
