He walks around my sentence, and he give me back no word He talks to me in echoes, and it makes my mind absurd To him, love is a turnstile to a supermarket store And he's just movin' through it; going shopping, nothing more Each time that I reach out to him, he moves out of reach I ask him what he really wants, and he says, "one of each" To him, I'm just a sometime thing he came across one day A paper cup you used to drink, and then you throw away I know it's time for me to go Or I could lose my way I know it's time for me to go It's too much pain to stay He'd listen to my music, and he'll rearrange my song He writes down all my tender lines, and gets the spelling wrong To him, life is a bad old joke he's a-heard ten times before He lives it just to be polite; as a favor, nothing more I know it's time for me to go Or I could lose my way I know it's time for me to go It's too much pain to stay I know, I know, I know, it's time to go Or I could lose my way I know it's time for me to go It's too much pain to stay
