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
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
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
Don't do nothing now to make me take it back
