Jonathan it's late, don't you think that I should go
|
Naw we were just starting to talk now,
|
It was just getting good don't you know.
|
|
But if I leave here in the morning. Yeah.
|
What will the neighbors tell your wife?
|
Well my wife knows me by now
|
So there's no need to let the neighbors run my life.
|
No, no need to let the neighbors run my life, no no.
|
|
Well it would look suspicious
|
And I know why they'd want to know
|
They love my wife but oh
|
They don't want her hurt and so...
|
|
If that's all they see
|
I wouldn't blame 'em let them go and tell my wife
|
Cuz my wife should know me by now
|
So there's no need to let the neighbors run my life.
|
No, no, no need to let the neighbors run my life, no no.

|
Here we are down the street
|
Here we are hand in hand. Yeah, so.
|
You're close to me won't people misunderstand?
|
That's fair, yeah, they could
|
If that's all they see,
|
I wouldn't blame them if they go and tell my wife
|
But my wife should know me by now
|
So there's no need to let the neighbors run my life.
|
No, no need to let the neighbors run my life, no no.
