Comfort Zone ©1996 Richard March He left a message, boy, and deep inside he knew That she was sittin’ there just watchin’ it roll She didn’t have the heart to pick up the receiver and To tell him he was too in control She wasn’t lookin’ for another mother’s Oedipal son Wanted someone who had learned to walk alone And didn’t have to work at havin’ fun Pushin’ 30, but you know she doesn’t worry 'Cause she’s learned to like her company fine Ain’t in no hurry, yeah the sister’s good at takin’ her time Hey, hey, it sure is hard to fake it when the winter months can get so cold Hey, hey, this love is overrated 'til you spend some time inside of your soul They went out every couple weeks But he was weak ‘cause he couldn’t tell her this should end So he smiled a lot, and tried not to get physical ‘Cause maybe they could just be friends She wasn’t stupid, but she sure was tired of bein’ alone He was polite, he never took the upper hand But now she wished he was a bit more bold She just stopped callin’ and got on with her life Now he wonders why he’s always alone Maybe someday he’ll have the guts to leave his comfort zone Hey, hey, you hang a sign that’s vacant, babe, you’re askin’ for a stranger to call Hey, hey, you step into the lens and maybe then you’ll find you’re not so small Yeah I’m tired of wakin’ up and takin’ up my time With all this tryin’ to find the finish line It’s my own fault, I chose to step into a vault Instead of coloring outside of the lines I drank the vinegar, yeah, thinkin’ it was fruit of the vine Hey, hey, I’m glad you found the formula, now let me see you put it in place Hey, hey, I sure don’t mean to rush ya', but we’d love to see it right away.
