Just before you go today

There's something that I've got to say

Well you asked me what was wrong

And I didn't want to tell you



You believed me when I said I tried

But oh, Carolyn, I lied

And its gone on far too long

And I never tried to help you



But don't wait up for me

Just don't wait up for me



It isn't quite the way you think

How low do you suppose I'd sink?

We can't bear to be apart

Oh I'm sorry that I said that



But come on now let's not pretend

We both knew we were near the end

I don't want to break your heart

But we just can't turn the clock back



But don't wait up for me

Just don't wait up for me

No more
