Here I am late again for the last time
|
And like I promised, I just told her goodbye
|
Please believe me 'cause this time, it's really over
|
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
|
|
Didn't I come and tell you about her
|
How temptation lured she and I
|
Now I know it was only fascination
|
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
|
|
I had to let her down easy as slow as I could
|
After all, she's got feelings too
|
But it took a little longer than I thought it would
|
But this time, she knows we're really through
|
|
She wanted to hold me forever
|
And this lipstick shows her final try
|
And these tears on my shoulder are proof that she failed
|
And darling, you know I wouldn't lie
|
