With pen in hand you signed your name today at five I'll be on that train
|
And you'll be free and I will be alone oh so alone
|
If you think we can't find the love we once knew
|
If you think I can make everything up to you
|
Then I'll be gone and you'll be on your own you'll be on your own
|
Can you take good care of Jenny can you take her to school everyday
|
Can you teach her how to play all the games that little girls play
|
Now hear what I say
|
Can you teach her how to roll up her hair
|
Can you make sure each night she says her prayer
|
If you can do all these things then maybe she won't miss me
|
Maybe she won't miss me
|
And tonight as you lay in that big lonely bed
|
And you look at the pillow where I laid my head
|
With your heart on fire will you have no desire to hold me and to kiss me
|
And if you can forget the good times we've had
|
If you don't think our good times outweigh the bad
|
Well then sign your name and I'll be on my way yes I'll be on my way hmm
