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 it's 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
