I'm hangin' around hopin' you'll get lonely
I'm hangin' around though you say we're through
You're tellin' me now that you'll never miss me
But I'm hangin' around just in case you do

I wanna be beside you every step you take
Every time you turn around I'll be in your way
All over you like poison ivy
You get the itch that's when you'll find me here to stay

Hangin' around hopin' you'll get lonely...
[ guitar ]
I'll be the melody that haunts your mind
Stuck in your mem'ry like a nursery rhyme
You'll take a fall like Humpty Dumpty
If it takes a month of Sundays I've got time

Hangin' around hopin' you'll get lonely...
I'm hangin' around just in case you do
