The End of a Love Affair

[Intro]
Do they know, do they care, that it's only
That I'm lonely, and low as can be?
And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all

[Verse 1]
So I walk a little too fast
And I drive a little too fast
And I'm reckless, it's true
But what else can you do
At the end of a love affair?

[Verse 2]
So, I talk a little too much
And I laugh a little too much
And my voice is too loud
When I'm out in a crowd
So that people are apt to stare

[Bridge]
Do they know, do they care, that it's only
That I'm lonely, and low as can be?
And the smile on my face isn't really a smile at all

[Verse 3]
So, I smoke a little too much
And I joke a little too much
And the tunes I request
Are not always the best
But the ones where the trumpets blare

[Outro]
So, I go at a maddening pace
And I pretend that it's taking her place
But what else can you do at the end of a love affair?
