Often Is a Word I Seldom Use |
| I know that you’re sad |
| I know that you’re lonely |
| You lie awake 'till way past when |
| I want you to know |
| That I’m leaving you only |
| 'cause I might not get the chance again. |
| I’m cold and I’m tired |
| And I can’t stop coughing |
| Long enough to tell you all of the news |
| I’d like to tell you |
| That I’ll see you more often |
| But often is a word I seldom use |
| Often is a word I seldom use. |
| Tell me, where did the weekend go? |
| Tell me, where did the weekend go? |
| Went like thunder, felt like snow. |
| Went like thunder, felt like snow. |
| You must think my life’s a circus |
| Watching me laughing |
| And slapping my thighs |
| How’d ya like to die |
| In the house of mirrors |
| With nobody around to close your eyes. |
| Going down to the Greyhound station |
| Going back home |
| And get what’s mine |
| Got me a date |
| With the ten o’clock special |
| Gonna be there at a quarter to nine. |
