Go Home

It's too dark

Just the passing cars illuminate the room

And it's harder every time I see you

And then when you leave I'm wondering when would be too soon

But you ain't mine to miss

And it's time we put a line down in the dust

I know what friendship is

And it sure doesn't feel like us

[Chorus]

Go home to her, while you still can

It's much too late now for drafting up new plans

And your woman's got an honest man

I always thought, so don't do nothing now to make me take it back

Now I'm sure that you've seen a girl go flushed before

But I don't want to get touched

I don't want to be moved

I don't want to think much

I just want to get through

With my hands in my pockets

While we can, let's just stop already

Have my own problems, I'm not trying to get sainted

I don't need to be good

I'm just trying to stay blameless

[Chorus]

I've seen our better natures

Flashing like a pair of flipping coins

And I know it's getting late

'Cause I can see exactly what's been running through your mind

And I don't pretend or tease

I like it less than you

It's been a long time lonely, I've got less to lose

But here's a chance to do right

This is the stuff of real life

Let's just let this one slide, say our goodbyes

[Chorus]

...don't do nothing now to make me take it back
