lyrics

We wake, we don't talk and we go about our separate ways
At night we're don't talk then repeat for a thousand days
What happened to my bubbly new bride?
When I told her I loved her, she sighed

There’s a distant look on her face when she’s here with me
She says that she’s happy but there’s someplace she’d rather be
How long can we live this lie?
And when’s she gonna tell me goodbye?

Wendy, when you gonna make up your mind?
Tell me, are you gonna leave me behind?
Wendy, when you gonna make up your mind?
Help me, you’ve got me in a terrible bind

I know I should speak but I don’t know what to say
I’m scared that she’ll leave but I can’t face another day
When I’m alone, I cry
And wonder if she’ll tell me goodbye

Wendy, when you gonna make up your mind?
Tell me, are you gonna leave me behind?
Wendy, when you gonna make up your mind?
Help me, you’ve got me in a terrible bind

She’s not willing to put in the time
I get high and go out of my mind

Wendy, when you gonna make up your mind?
Tell me, are you gonna leave me behind?
Wendy, when you gonna make up your mind?
Help me, you’ve got me in a terrible bind
