[Verse 1]
When I was away, I needed you so
Now I'm coming home to stay
I won't wake in the night and reach for you
And turn on the light and to my dismay
[Verse 2]
You're not there, you're never around
Or is it me? It's so hard to see
I flick off the switch and stare in the dark
And wait for you to appear
[Chorus]
You're my all-time doll, I'm out of control
It's broken my mind, that's not all that you stole
You're my all-time doll, you're all I adore
I'd swear to it now it but I already swore
[Bridge]
My eyes are blinded by tears but it's all my own fault
My lips taste of cruel words, my eyes sting with salt
Take the way I feel about you and put it in a vault
You're my all-time doll
[Verse 2]
From near and from far, I've known many a girl
Now I'm closing in
My heart is beating like a whip on a hide
It's raining outside
[Chorus]
You're my all-time doll, I'm out of control
It's broken my mind, that's not all that you stole
You're my all-time doll, you're all I adore
I'd swear to it now it but I already swore
[Bridge]
Every time I rant and rail, every time I try and fail
Any time I want to quit and say, "That's the end of it"
When I stand and start to leave you cool my brow and tug my sleeve
You're my all-time doll
[Verse 3]
I'm walking, I'm pacing, my heart is racing
I swear that clock is running slow
It only speeds up for a moment or so
Each time it's time for me to go
[Chorus]
You're my all-time doll, I'm out of control
It's broken my mind, that's not all that you stole
You're my all-time doll, you're all I adore
I'd swear to it now it but I already swore
[Bridge]
In the far flung cry of a closing saloon
On the blank back side of that poisonous moon
I tried not to think about you, I thought I was immune
You're my all-time doll
[Outro]
You're my all-time doll
You're my all-time doll
You're my all-time doll
