[Verse 1]
I've been lonely for so long
Even when you're with me
You're still gone
I'm tired of reaching for your love
What you've been given
It just ain't enough
[Refrain: Maureen McCormick with Wendy Waldman & Kenny Edwards]
You're so close to losing me
In a cloud of dust
[Verse 2]
I get no shoulder when I cry
Even when you hold me
Baby, it ain't tight
There's a cold wind coming up
Gonna blow some changes
All over us
[Refrain: Maureen McCormick with Wendy Waldman & Kenny Edwards]
You're so close to losing me
In a cloud of dust
[Chorus: Maureen McCormick with Wendy Waldman & Kenny Edwards]
Can't say I didn't warn you
You can't say I didn't try
'Cause I'm the one that's been holding on
When I could've said goodbye
But if you don't show some feeling
And I don't feel some love
Soon there won't bе nothing left
But the memory of my touch
In a cloud of dust
Takе off!
[Verse 3]
Well, you've been asking
What's on my mind
Now you know, but you still got time
If you want me bad enough
You got to give me a reason
Not to give it up
[Refrain: Maureen McCormick with Wendy Waldman & Kenny Edwards]
You're so close to losing me
In a cloud of dust
[Chorus: Maureen McCormick with Wendy Waldman & Kenny Edwards]
You can't say I didn't warn you
You can't say I didn't try
'Cause I'm the one that's been holding on
When I could've said goodbye
But if you don't show some feeling
And I don't feel some love
Soon there won't be nothing left
But the memory of my touch
In a cloud of dust
[Outro: Maureen McCormick with Wendy Waldman & Kenny Edwards]
You've got to stop
Stop treating me wrong
Or I'm as good as gone
In a cloud of dust
Just a cloud of dust
Ha!
