Pardon me...

...kissing you like I'm afraid,

but I know I'm being played with,

and you'll leave me when you get the chance...

Off you'll go,

in the darkness of the night,

like a bird in freedom's flight,

you're thinking only of, deliverence...



Close your eyes,

and pretend that you are me,

see how empty it can be,

making love if love's not really there...



Watch me go,

watch me walk away alone,

as your clothing comes undone,

and you pull the ribbons from your hair...



Pardon me...
