If I had a dime for every question I could buy myself a band to keep the answers in When the house you rent was getting painted I thought this out and wrote it down and mailed it When I think of it, it makes me crazy And if I hear from you You know it will amaze me I'm gonna take a train across the river And when I see your face I've got a message to deliver Without a thought you carry on And I'll be the last thing on your mind before too long You said you'd always love me as a friend But you left the water on instead You left it running in my head I've been taaking this from you for much too long When my train gets in I'll call you on the telephone But before I go can you just tell me Did the coffee tea and paperbacks mean anything? Without a thought you carry on And I'll be the last thing on your mind before too long You said you'd always love me as a friend But you left the water on instead You left it running in my head I went to the train to get my ticket And I laid myself out on the tracks derailed it
