Don't come too close
Don't say a word
Nothing you say

Will get through to this girl

All of these years I've avoided love

For bigger things I've been dreaming of
I've had my fun
When it's all said and done


You came along with your quiet ways
We'd call in sick and live our days

I made room for you
Isn't that truth


Come now my love
Time's up now for us
You can't say that you're surprised

I'll wish that I didn't leave
I won't sleep for weeks
But it is worse to stay


Here's to your new life, I'll send you on your way


I've kissed your mouth and I know your skin
Folded the sheets that we slept in
We were gold my love but we messed it up


I've had the closest of all the views
But I've never felt so far from you

We used to write
Our way through the night


Come now my love
Time's up now for us
You can't say that you're surprised

I'll wish that I didn't leave
I won't sleep for weeks
But it is worse to stay


Here's to your new life, I'll send you on your way


You will move on
A pretty girl will come along
I'll paint it red

Our little blue room with words above the bed

Come now my love

Time's up now for us
You can't say that you're surprised
I'll wish that I didn't leave

I won't sleep for weeks
But it is worse to stay


Here's to your new life, I'll send you on your way
