	Story Behind the Song This song was written in about two hours. The intro and chord progression came out in about 5 minutes along with the basic vocal melody. After that it was just a matter of the lyrics. A few syllables sounded good together for the first line and the story just followed effortlessly: makin' out with the ex-girlfriend behind the new boyfriend's back, yet still feeling jealous of the putz. I tweaked a word here and there and I had a 4-minute tune about sex & love & jealousy. We're not re-creating the wheel here. Lyrics You're sad the weekend's over It's alright, I'll come over Night lights are nice at night I'll be yours if you want tonight Your naked body feels good next to mine Please let me know when you feel lonely Next time It ain't good, it ain't bad It's just the way it is I just wish that my life was his Came by to see what's up Time's OK but it screws things up I like how you've changed the place I different guy and a different pace The picture frames by your bed haven't changed It's just the pictures themselves that look strange It ain't goo, it ain't bad It's just the way it is I just wished that my life was his I should be leaving soon We had the night now it's almost noon So much room on your floor But that bed up there means so much more Your deep shag rug feels so nice on my face Maybe another night, I'll sleep in his place It ain't good, it ain't bad It's just the way it is I just wished that my life was his
