I watch you reading a book I get to thinking our Love's a polished stone You give me a long drawn look I know pretty soon You're gonna leave our home And of course I mind Especially when I'm Thinking from my heart But life don't clickety-clack Down a straight-line track It comes together and it comes apart You say you hope I'm not the kind To make you feel obliged To go ticking through your time With a pained look in your eyes You give me the furniture We'll divide the photographs Go out to dinner one more time Have ourselves a bottle of wine And a couple of laughs
When first you left I stayed so sad I wouldn't sleep I know that love's a gift I thought yours was mine And something That I could keep Now I realize The time is not the only compromise A bird in the hand Could be an all-night stand Between a blazing fire And a pocket of skies So I hope I'm not the kind To make you feel obliged To go ticking through your time With a pained look in your eyes I covered the furniture I framed the photographs Go out to dinner one more time Have myself a bottle of wine And a couple of laughs
Just the other day I got your letter in the mail I'm happy for you It's been so long You've been wanting A cabin and a backwoods trail And I think that's great Me I seem to find myself in school It's all okay I just want to say I'm so relieved We didn't do it cruel Ain't life a brook Just when I get to Feeling like a polished stone I get me a long drawn look It's kind of a drag To find yourself alone Sometimes I mind Especially when I'm Waiting on your heart But life don't clickety-clack Down a straight-line track It comes together And it comes apart And I know you're not the kind To make me feel obliged To go ticking through my time With a pained look in my eyes I sold the furniture I put away the photographs Went out to dinner one more time Had myseff a bottle of wine And a couple of laughs For wasn't it fineTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
