It's easier to loaf on a busy day When there's lots of work to be done I can drink more water when it's hot and dry And my throat has been scorched by the sun You feel pretty small when you study the sky As far as the eye can see And love is sweeter when you're all alone The way that you left me The shadows turn black In the middle of the day When the sun's high in the sky And lights get brighter in the middle of the night Where there wasn't any light to see by I pass not the place where we sat yesterday Where you rested your head on my knee And love is sweeter when you're all alone The way that you left me
