A Song for You

Walk on by - please don't cry
Not one teardrop for me
Honey 'cause your time ain't long
I can't hear words you say
See your eyes and turn away
So this can't be where I belong

You say you love me - and you're fair
And the light shines in your hair
But it makes no difference to what we know
Pretty baby it's time to go back home
And think it over - all day long
Just think it over - you know it's wrong
It's not the kind of loving
To make a weak man strong

Close your eyes - count to ten
When you open them again
Chances are that I'll be gone
It's no use to explain
All those same old things again
They're no use to dwell upon

Those old mistakes we think we made
But when all is said and done
We're just afraid to say goodbye
But there really is no reason why
We should hang on - another day
As time goes on - and rolls away
Into the past - and there we stay
