Next time that you see me
I have changed my hair
I'll have taken up smoking
And stopped caring who cares
And you won’t recognize me
I’ll hide behind these shades
You won't see these red-rimmed eyes
Giving me away
And if you call me
I'll not reply
Cause’ you don’t know me
I won’t live a lie
So please don’t call me your baby
Cause’ I don’t know that name
I’m not that same sweet fool
I'm slipping in and out of the night
like a cat of the woman
And I'm breaking all the rules
Cause' I never used to get what I should
Being good
I might taste a little meat
Cause I’m done with being sweet
And if I fall I know I’m landing on my feet
The only thing following me back home is my shadow
Next time that you see me
I’ll be dressed in black
And we’ll pass like strangers
And I will not look back
And I’ll ignore my pale heart whispering in my chest
And like a silent movie
I’ll disappear with all the rest
And if you call me,
I'll not reply
Cause’ you don’t know me
I won’t live a lie
So please don’t call me your darling heart
Cause’ I don’t know that name
And I’m not that same sweet fool
I'm slipping in and out of the night
like a cat of the woman
And I'm breaking all the rules
Cause' I never used to get what I should
Being good
I might taste a little meat
Cause I’m done with being sweet
And if I fall I know I’m landing on my feet
The only thing following me back home is my shadow
I’m landing on my feet
