He always gets so mad things you laugh at.
|
"Don't get so worked up" you'd say. But on the
|
Back deck you admit that you haven't felt much
|
Like laughing lately anyway. And so I say, "that
|
Could change."
|
|
I noticed how you waste no time making your way
|
Across the room. You leave a wake of tongues
|
Still waving after you. And it isn't no coincidence
|
Where you finally choose to stand. I guess soon
|
You will be leaving your man.
|
|
It's a sweet smile and then a denial. Hey, you
|
Are just trying to be nice. But there is a meaning
|
To every fleeting action you unconsciously
|
Decide. The clocks they chime. Now it's time.
|
|
I know you try and play it cool but there are
|
Some thoughts you just can't hide. Only in your
|
Closest friends do you confide. The way you say
|
You'll be seeing me, oh like it's so offhand. I
|
Guess soon you will be leaving your man.
|
|
You stare at me so boldly now. You have no lack
|
Of confidence. It's just those lessons on sublety
|
You missed. I know you dream of saving me
|
Like I'm some plane that you could land. But
|
When you fly you'll be leaving your man.

Soon You Will Be Leaving Your Man
