A loner's carved a note into my table
it reads: 'I'm a goner'
They discuss if it's a sign of life or death
to use red in a painting
And in comes the butcher
gets a 'Bonjour' and his coffee priority served
Don't gimme 'Glamour'
it's just talk lacking in grammar
Though I believe this is killing me
I'll use a smile and word it nice and clean:
I promise to not give them away
my thoughts that are all about the when
'Cause you will know just when to arrive
Yeah, you will come see me again!
Oh, I believe this is killing me
I promise to not give them away
my thoughts that are all about the when
'Cause you will know just when to arrive
Yeah, you will come see me again!
