I stopped at an all night diner
   Ooh, it seemed like a romantic thing to do
   Yeah, but I'm lonely, it ain't like the movies
   In the old days
   I saw you sittin' in the corner counting change,
   Like you were counting your daydreams
   Then youe eyes, they suddenly hit me like a railroad train
  
   Oh, sometimes I think I might be immune to a guy like you
   But I can't walk away, no I can't walk away
   Oh, tonight I see you're at the end of the line, well, me too
   But we all gotta pay
  
   I know you'd be good to me
   I know you'd try to be good to me
   But in the end, baby can't depend on no one else
   When the chips are down, I have found
   You better be good to yourself...good to yourself
  
   I guess I've known you before, maybe in high school
   or maybe you're just one more guy I went looking for
   The boy next door
   Or maybe I'm the girl with the see-through eyes
   But I watch too many movies,
   I get tangled in the story of someone else's life
   Baby, who am I...and who are you?
  
   Oh, sometimes I go to bed at night
   And I think that I'm with you
   Then I say a little prayer, cuz I threw it all away
   The other day you called up to see if I miss you
   And all I could say was
  
   I know you'd be good to me
   I know you'd try to be good to me
   But in the end, baby can't depend on no one else
   When the chips are down, I have found
   You better be good to yourself...good to yourself
  
   Night has a clever desguise
   She makes me believe that I'm lonely
   I should know by now if I can make it to tomorrow
   I can work it out
  
   Cuz in the end, baby can't depend on no one else
   When the chips are down, I have found
   You better be good to yourself...good to yourself
