Scott Edward Phelps/Cyril Rawson)





It's just after five

You're still asleep

There's a taxi outside

So I'm leavin' this note

And I hope it explains

Where I once saw a fire

There's not even a flame

So when you awake I'll be gone

And I won't ask a thing from now on



(Chorus)

I don't need this house

So you keep the keys

I won't need that rug

I won't be down on my knees

I've packed up this heart

And I'm movin' cross town

To the arms of someone who cares

And I don't need the car

You already drove me there



Now I want you to know

That I never thought

I could let go

But he came along

At a time and a place

When the distance from you

Was a terrible space

You gave me reasons to leave

But he gives me all that I need



(Repeat Chorus)
